Pretilachlor 50% EC is a pre-emergence, broad-spectrum herbicide of the Chloroacetamide group which controls all types of weeds in rice. Craze is absorbed primarily by the germinating shoots, and secondarily by the roots, with trans-location throughout the plant, giving higher concentrations in vegetative parts than in reproductive parts. Mode of action: It is a cell division inhibitor. It is reported that chloroacetamide inhibits the synthesis of very long-chain fatty acids. It is taken up readily by the hypocotyls, mesocotyls, and coleoptiles, and to a lesser extent, by the roots of germinating weeds resulting in reduction of growth and development of plants.

Benefits of ETRAZ:

• Controls both narrow and broad leaf weeds before the emergence.
• Gives control for a longer time.
• Safe to rice crop as compared to other weedicides used in this crop.
• Suitable for integrated weed management.
