About Product
- Long lasting Alion Plus Herbicide provides a new solution for foliar and pre-emergence control of wide range of annual grass and broad leaf weeds, including those resistant to conventional herbicides, all without compromising crop safety.
- It helps in overcoming the current weed management practices in tea plantations regarding labour availability, increasing wages and losses due to host for alternate pest.
Alion Plus Herbicide Technical Details
Technical Content: Indaziflam 20 + Glyphosate IPA 540 SC (1.65% w/w + 44.63% w/w).
Mode of Entry: non-selective systemic
Mode of Action: Alion PLUS is a combination of indaziflam and glyphosate herbicides.
- Indaziflam, part of the alkyalazine group, disrupts plant growth by blocking cellulose synthesis. This interference not only curbs meristem growth but also functions as a soil herbicide, preventing weed germination and emergence.
- In contrast, a glycine derivative operates as a non-selective systemic herbicide. It hampers protein synthesis by inhibiting the activity of an enzyme known as 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) within the aromatic acid pathway. This disturbance prevents the production of essential aromatic amino acids necessary for plant protein synthesis.
