Product Overview & Technical Specifications

• Product Name: Butachlor 60% EC Herbicide
• Company Name: Jaffer Agro Chemicals (Jaffer Brothers Services)
• Active Ingredient: Butachlor 60% EC
• Formulation Type: EC (Emulsifiable Concentrate)
• Pack Size: 800ml

Target Weed Spectrum & Control Action

This powerful systemic formulation targets the most destructive weed varieties that stunt early rice vegetative development, specifically handling:

• Control of Annual Grasses: Highly active against invasive field grasses, including Barnyard Grass (Deela / Swanki) and Jungle Rice.
• Broad Leaved Weeds: Prevents the growth of major annual broadleaf weeds at the early germination stage.
• Sedges Elimination: Effectively halts early-stage sedge developments before they can build thick field mats.

Mode of Action & Chemical Performance

Understanding how Butachlor 60%EC Herbicide works helps in maximizing its field efficacy:

• Shoot Absorption: The active ingredient is primarily absorbed through the germinating weed shoots, and secondarily through their developing roots.
• Protein Synthesis Inhibition: Once inside the weed plant, it translocates quickly to vegetative regions and inhibits cell division by blocking vital protein synthesis.
• Selective Systemic Protection: It selectively targets weed species while leaving transplanted rice seedlings completely unharmed when used as directed.

Field Dosage & Application Timing Guide

To secure a complete kill of germinating weeds without putting stress on the rice plant, observe the following application parameters:

• Recommended Dose Rate: Apply strictly at a rate of 800 ml per acre.
• Optimal Application Window: The product should be applied using a shaker bottle or calibrated spray within 3 to 5 days (maximum 5 to 7 days) following rice transplantation.
• Standing Water Management: Ensure a consistent water level of 3 to 4 inches is maintained in the paddy field at the time of application.
• Post-Application Standing Water: Keep the water standing in the field for at least 5 to 7 days after application to allow the chemical to create an impenetrable weed-barrier layer.

Agronomic Benefits for Rice Cultivation

Using premium pesticides like Jaffer's Butachlor changes the economic dynamic of your farm:

• Reduces Manual Labor: Eliminates the heavy expenses and operational headaches of hiring manual weeding labor.
• Maximizes Fertilizer Efficiency: By eliminating weed competition, every kilogram of Urea, DAP, or Zinc applied goes entirely to your rice crop.
• Sustained Field Cleanliness: Keeps the paddy fields immaculate during the critical first month of crop establishment.

Safety Precautions & Storage Instructions

• Storage: Keep the Butachlor 800ml bottle tightly sealed in its original packaging. Store in a secure, cool, dry location away from children, livestock, and food items.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: When is the absolute best time to apply Butachlor Rice Pre Emergence Herbicide?

A: It must be applied within 3 to 5 days after transplanting the rice crops, before any weeds begin to emerge from the mud.

Q: What is the exact seed or field application rate of rice for this weedicide?

A: The standard field dosage rate is exactly 800 ml per acre for standard paddy field conditions in Pakistan.

Q: Why is standing water mandatory during application?

A: Standing water (3-4 inches) allows the emulsifiable concentrate to spread uniformly across the whole field, forming an even chemical layer that blocks weed shoot germination.

Q: Can I mix this product with post-emergence weed killers?

A: No. Butachlor is a pre-emergence option designed to block weed development early. Mixing it with post-emergence options is generally unnecessary and could cause phytotoxicity issues to young rice seedlings.

Q: Does this product protect against both grasses and broadleaf weeds?

A: Yes, it is specifically manufactured for the comprehensive control of annual grasses and targeted broad leaved weeds in flooded rice fields.
