metsulfuron-methyl

Common name :

metsulfuron-methyl

IUPAC name:

methyl 2-(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-ylcarbamoylsulfamoyl)benzoate

Chemical Abstracts name

methyl 2-[[[[(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)amino]carbonyl]amino]sulfonyl]benzoate

CAS RN

74223-64-6

M.F.:

C₁₄H₁₅N₅O₆S

APPLICATIONS 

Mode of action

Selective systemic herbicide absorbed through the roots and foliage, with rapid translocation both acropetally and basipetally. Susceptible plants cease growth almost immediately after post-emergence treatment, and are killed in 7-21 days. Surfactants increase the activity of metsulfuron-methyl on certain broad-leaved weeds.

USES

Metsulfuron-methyl controls a wide range of annual and perennial broad-leaved weeds in wheat, barley, rice and oats, by either pre- or post-emergence application, at 4-7.5 g/ha post-emergence

Formulation:

10%WP 60%WP 20%WDG 60%WDG

Crop:

wheat, barley, oat

Target:

A.aequalis, cardamine, malachium aquaticum, lapsana apogonoides, (ranunculus japonicus), water dropwort, ,veronica didyma, cirsium arversa, fructus kochiae

Precautions:

1. Residues a long period, not used on  mix sets of maize and wheat, cotton, tobacco and other sensitive crop fields

2. Neutral soil wheat fields, 120 days after sown rape,cabbage, cotton, soybean, cucumber, etc. produced injury, alkaline soil phytotoxicity even heavier.
