  • Applications

    Foramsulfuron (CAS 173159-57-4) is a sulfonylurea herbicide used in agriculture to control annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in crops such as rice and other cereals; it is applied systemically to move within plants and inhibits acetolactate synthase (ALS), reducing amino acid biosynthesis and weed growth. Real-world applications include weed control in rice and cereals, turf management on golf courses and lawns, landscape and ornamental horticulture as part of integrated weed management programs, and use in tank-mixes with other herbicides to broaden the control spectrum, all within label directions and local regulations.
