FAQ's of SILZAR Tembotrion 34.4% SC:
Q: How does SILZAR Tembotrion 34.4% SC control weeds in maize?
A: SILZAR inhibits the 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) enzyme, which is vital for carotenoid biosynthesis in weeds. By disrupting this process, SILZAR causes weed chlorosis and death, effectively targeting both broadleaf and grassy species without damaging maize.
Q: What is the recommended application process for SILZAR in maize fields?
A: Apply SILZAR as a post-emergence herbicide when weeds are actively growing, typically after the maize crop has emerged. Ensure uniform coverage and use appropriate dosage as per the product label. It can be mixed with most commonly used herbicides for broader spectrum weed control.
Q: When is the optimal time to apply SILZAR for best results?
A: For maximum efficacy, use SILZAR after the emergence of both the maize crop and the targeted weeds. Application should coincide with the early growth stage of weeds, ensuring they are small and more susceptible to the herbicide action.
Q: Where should SILZAR be stored to maintain its effectiveness?
A: Store SILZAR in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, and always in its original sealed packaging. Proper storage will maintain its potency and extend its shelf life up to two years from the date of manufacture.
Q: Is SILZAR compatible with other crop protection products?
A: Yes, SILZAR Tembotrion 34.4% SC is compatible with most commonly used herbicides. Always conduct a jar test before mixing with other chemicals to confirm compatibility and ensure optimal performance.
Q: What benefits does SILZAR offer compared to traditional herbicides?
A: SILZAR provides highly selective control of a wide spectrum of broadleaf and grassy weeds, supports higher maize yields, and possesses low toxicity to mammals. Its convenient liquid form and extended shelf life further add to ease of use for farmers.
