Product feature
A post-emergence herbicide that controls a range of key broadleaf weeds in rice including dirty dora, starfruit, arrowhead, water plantain and seedling cumbungi.
Robust selective weed control - Basagen M60 has excellent knockdown capabilities on broadleaf weeds. Weeds will brown out soon after application, allowing the rice to continue to develop without any broadleaf weed competition.
Dual mode of action for broadleaf weed control in rice - Basagen M60 is a Group CI herbicide. It is ideal for inclusion in resistance management strategies where weeds such as dirty dora are resistant to Group B chemistry (e.g. Londax).
Dictate M60 is safe when used on rice - Bentazone, the main active constituent of Basagen M60, is very active on broadleaf weeds and does not cause any phytoxicity, biomass reduction or root pruning on rice.
Basagen M60 can be applied to rice any time from emergence to panicle initiation allowing competing weeds to be removed early.
