Imazethapyr is a selective, systemic herbicide belonging to the imidazolinone class. It is used for pre-emergence and post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds and grasses in a variety of crops. Imazethapyr inhibits acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS), an essential enzyme in the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids, which leads to plant growth suppression and eventual death.

Used for pre-emergence and post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds and grasses in soybeans, groundnuts, and pulses.
Effective against weeds in direct-seeded and transplanted rice fields.
Applied in leguminous crops and vegetable cultivation.
Store in a cool, dry place at temperatures between 2–8°C (35–46°F).
Keep away from moisture, direct sunlight, and oxidizing agents.
Store in airtight, non-reactive containers to maintain stability.
Available in 1 L, 5 L, 20 L (SL) packaging for industrial and commercial use.
It inhibits acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS), preventing amino acid biosynthesis in susceptible weeds.
Primarily used in soybeans, pulses, peanuts, rice, and vegetable crops.
It is both pre-emergence and post-emergence, offering residual weed control.
It has low residual activity, allowing for crop rotation flexibility.
Yes, it is compatible with various herbicides for integrated weed management.
When used as directed, it is considered low in toxicity, but protective equipment should be used.
