PENTICTON 5 EC

INTRODUCTION: Fluazifop-p-butyl is a selective phenoxy herbicide used for postemergence control of annual and perennial grass weeds. It is used on cotton, soybeans and other broad-leaved crops such as carrots, spinach, potatoes, and ornamentals. Fluazifop-p-butyl is a general use pesticide. Fluazifop-P-butyl is a butyl 2-(4-{[5- (trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl]oxy}phenoxy)propanoate that has R configutation. The active enantiomer of the herbicide fluazifop-butyl, it is used as a post-emergence herbicide for the control grass weeds in various broad-leaved crops. It has a role as an agrochemical, a herbicide and an EC 6.4.1.2 (acetyl-CoA carboxylase) inhibitor. It is functionally related to a fluazifop-P. It is an enantiomer of a (S)-fluazifop-butyl. Phenoxy herbicides (or “phenoxies”) are two families of chemicals that have been developed as commercially important herbicides, widely used in agriculture. They share the part structure of phenoxyacetic acid

USAGES: Broad spectrum, systemic, preventive and curative fungicide effective against many fungal pathogens (in the groups Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes and Deuteromycetes). Flusilazole is recommended for use on many crops, such as: Apples (control of Venturia, Podosphaera), Peaches (control of Sphaerotheca, Monilia), Cereals (control of most foliar diseases), Vines (control of Uncinula, Guinardia), Sugar beet (control of Cercospora, Erysiphe), Maize (control of Helminthosporium), Sunflowers (control of Phomopsis), Oilseed rape (control of Pseudocercosporella, Pyrenopeziza) and Bananas (control of Mycosphaerella).
