About the Product
EROS GOLD® provides superior weed management by combining two complementary herbicides with different modes of action. Pretilachlor inhibits cell division and shoot development in germinating weeds, while Pyrazosulfuron Ethyl inhibits the ALS enzyme, preventing the synthesis of essential amino acids required for weed growth.
The dual chemistry provides broad-spectrum weed control, improves resistance management, and creates a weed-free environment during the early stages of rice establishment.
