Bayer Lagon Herbicide | 250ml

Bayer Lagon Herbicide | 250ml is likely a post-emergent herbicide formulated for targeted weed control in crops, lawns, or non-crop areas. Bayer herbicides are known for their scientific rigor, safety standards, and efficacy. The 250ml size suggests suitability for small farms, gardens, or spot treatments.

This herbicide combines two complementary active ingredients—Isoxaflutole (75g/l) and Aclonifen (500g/l)—for broad-spectrum, pre-emergent control of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. The dual-action formulation targets weeds at germination and early growth stages, providing residual soil activity. Ideal for integrated weed management in row crops, it disrupts weed emergence while minimizing resistance risks through synergistic modes of action.

Key Features & Characteristics of Bayer Lagon Herbicide | 250ml:

1. 1. Active Ingredients:

      • Isoxaflutole (75g/l):

        • Mode of Action: Inhibits HPPD (4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase), blocking carotenoid biosynthesis. Causes “bleaching” of seedlings by chlorophyll degradation.

        • Target Weeds: Annual grasses (e.g., foxtail, barnyard grass) and some broadleaf weeds.

      • Aclonifen (500g/l):

        • Mode of Action: Disrupts cell division and photosynthesis by inhibiting protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) and lipid synthesis.

        • Target Weeds: Broadleaf weeds (e.g., pigweed, lambsquarters) and certain grasses.

   2. Synergistic Benefits:

      • Extended Residual Control: Dual mechanisms delay weed resistance.

      • Broad-Spectrum Efficacy: Targets both grasses and broadleaf weeds.

      • Crop Safety: Selective use in tolerant crops (e.g., maize, sunflower, soybean) when applied correctly.

   3. Formulation:

      • Liquid suspension concentrate (SC) or emulsifiable concentrate (EC).

      • Requires thorough mixing with water for uniform soil application.

Applications:

1. Target Crops:

   • Maize (Corn): Pre-emergent control in field corn or sweet corn.

   • Sunflower: Effective in sunflower rotations.

   • Soybean: Check label for varietal tolerance.

   • Other Crops: Potatoes, legumes (confirm crop-specific registration).

2. Target Weeds:

   • Grasses: Foxtail, crabgrass, barnyard grass.

   • Broadleaves: Amaranth, nightshade, lambsquarters, velvetleaf.

3. Application Guidelines:

   • Timing: Apply pre-emergence (before weed germination), ideally post-planting but before crop emergence.

   • Soil Incorporation: Light incorporation or rainfall/irrigation within 5–7 days to activate.

   • Dosage:

     • Typical rate: 1.0–1.5 L/ha (varies by soil type, organic matter, and target weeds).

     • Example: For 1L/ha, apply 250ml of product (at 75g/l + 500g/l) in 200–300L water/ha.

   • Soil Type: Best efficacy in medium-textured soils (avoid sandy soils with low organic matter).

Safety & Precautions:

• Protective Gear: Gloves, goggles, mask, and long sleeves.

• Environmental: Avoid water contamination (toxic to aquatic life).

• Re-Entry Interval (REI): 24–48 hours (check label).

• Storage: Keep in original container, away from children/pets.
