Acetochlor EC 50%

Acetochlor is a selective pre‑emergence herbicide that provides reliable control of annual grasses and certain broadleaf weeds in corn, soybeans, and other labeled crops. It works by inhibiting shoot growth in germinating weed seeds, preventing emergence before competition with the crop becomes established. This herbicide is available in emulsifiable concentrate, microencapsulated, and granular formulations, offering flexibility in application methods including broadcast spraying, banding, or soil incorporation. Acetochlor delivers extended residual activity, reducing the need for repeat applications during the early growing season. It is effective against troublesome weeds such as foxtail, barnyardgrass, crabgrass, pigweed, and waterhemp. Acetochlor is also a valuable component in herbicide resistance management programs when used in rotation or tank mixes with other modes of action. Proper application according to label instructions ensures optimal weed control and crop safety.
