About the Product
COUNCIL® ACTIV WG30 combines two modern herbicides that work together to inhibit the Acetolactate Synthase (ALS) enzyme, stopping the production of essential amino acids required for weed growth. Triafamone is absorbed through both leaves and roots, while Ethoxysulfuron is primarily absorbed through leaves and translocated throughout the weed.
The complementary activity ensures rapid weed suppression, prolonged residual control, and excellent crop safety in transplanted as well as wet direct-seeded rice systems.
