About the Product
RUNDOWN combines Mesotrione and Atrazine, providing two different mechanisms of weed control.
Mesotrione
Mesotrione is an HPPD inhibitor. It interferes with carotenoid biosynthesis in susceptible weeds, resulting in characteristic bleaching followed by weed decline.
Atrazine
Atrazine inhibits Photosystem II, interfering with photosynthesis and preventing susceptible weeds from producing the energy required for continued growth.
The combination provides complementary activity against a range of weeds and can also provide residual suppression after application.
Key Features
Dual Mode of Action
Combines Mesotrione and Atrazine to provide complementary weed-control activity.
Broad-Spectrum Weed Management
Helps control important annual grassy and broadleaf weeds in approved crops.
Post-Emergence Activity
Designed for application after weed emergence, particularly when weeds are young and actively growing.
Residual Weed Suppression
Ichiban describes RUNDOWN as providing approximately 20–30 days of residual weed control, depending on conditions.
Convenient SC Formulation
The Suspension Concentrate formulation allows the product to be diluted in water and applied using suitable agricultural spraying equipment.
Recommended Crops
Maize
RUNDOWN can be used for post-emergence management of susceptible grassy and broadleaf weeds in maize.
Sugarcane
The product is also positioned for weed management in sugarcane, subject to the approved label recommendation.
Always verify the current product label for the exact registered crop, dosage, application timing, and weed spectrum before use.
Target Weeds
Ichiban identifies RUNDOWN for management of weeds including:
- Trianthema spp.
- Digitaria sanguinalis
- Echinochloa spp.
- Amaranthus viridis
- Cyperus spp.
- Other susceptible annual grasses
- Other susceptible broadleaf weeds
Application Guidelines
Foliar Spray
RUNDOWN is intended for post-emergence foliar application. Apply uniformly to actively growing weeds using suitable spraying equipment.
Best Application Stage
Ichiban recommends application when the target weeds are approximately at the 2–4 leaf stage.
Early application generally provides better weed-management results because young weeds are more susceptible.
Dosage
The exact dosage should be taken from the current RUNDOWN product label for the particular crop and application situation.
I have not included an unverified dose here because the available manufacturer information confirms the composition and crop/application stage but does not provide a reliable current dose.
Fertigation
Not recommended.
Soil Application
RUNDOWN is primarily intended for post-emergence weed management, rather than conventional soil application.
Frequency
Follow the manufacturer's recommended application schedule. Avoid unnecessary repeat applications and incorporate different herbicide modes of action into long-term weed-resistance management.
