Pyroxasulfone is a selective, pre-emergence herbicide that inhibits the biosynthesis of very-long-chain fatty acids in plants, effectively controlling a broad spectrum of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. It is particularly effective against species resistant to ACCase and ALS inhibitors, as well as glyphosate-resistant biotypes. Pyroxasulfone is commonly used in crops such as wheat, corn, soybeans, and cotton.

Pyroxasulfone inhibits very-long-chain fatty acid biosynthesis, disrupting cell membrane formation in weeds, leading to pre-emergence control.
It effectively controls annual grasses and broadleaf weeds, including glyphosate-resistant biotypes in crops such as wheat, corn, soybeans, and cotton.
Pyroxasulfone has residual activity, and rotational crop restrictions should be followed as per label recommendations to avoid carryover effects.
The residual activity varies based on soil type, moisture levels, and application rates, generally providing extended weed control for several weeks.
Yes, it is compatible with many other pre-emergence and post-emergence herbicides for a broader spectrum of weed control.
The application rate depends on crop type, soil characteristics, and weed spectrum; refer to agronomic guidelines or product labels for precise recommendations.
Avoid ingestion, inhalation, and skin exposure; use protective gloves, eyewear, and clothing when handling. Follow appropriate disposal measures as per regulation.
