  • Applications

    Acifluorfen sodium (CAS 62476-59-9) is a PPO-inhibitor herbicide active ingredient used in agriculture to control broadleaf weeds; typical applications include (1) acting as the active ingredient in herbicide products for crops such as soybeans and peanuts, (2) formulations in EC or SP forms applied post-emergence or pre-emergence depending on the product label, (3) tank-mixing with other herbicides to broaden spectrum and efficacy, (4) weed management in crop rotation systems and agro-ecosystems sensitive to PPO-inhibitors.
