NICHIFIT+ – Pretilachlor 37% W/W EW is a highly effective pre-emergence herbicide formulated as an emulsifiable concentrate (EW). It provides strong and broad-spectrum control of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in paddy (rice) cultivation. NICHIFIT+ prevents weed competition during the early stages of crop growth by inhibiting weed germination and development, promoting healthy crop establishment, better plant vigor, and higher yields.
Inhibits Lipid and Protein Synthesis: Pretilachlor interferes with the biosynthesis of lipids and proteins in weeds → prevents cell division and elongation → inhibits seedling growth.
Soil Residual Effect: Applied pre-emergence → remains active in the soil → controls weed seed germination and early growth stages.
Selective Action: Controls weeds effectively while remaining safe for rice crop when applied as recommended.
Broad-spectrum pre-emergence weed control – Controls key weeds such as barnyard grass, frogbit, sedges, and other annual grasses and broadleaf weeds.
Promotes healthy crop establishment – Reduces weed competition for nutrients, light, and water, leading to vigorous crop growth.
Long residual protection – Provides effective weed control for up to 30–45 days after application.
Easy application & mixing – Emulsifiable concentrate formulation allows easy mixing with water and uniform spray.
Crop-safe formulation – Designed specifically for rice fields when used as recommended.
Improves crop yield and quality – Ensures a weed-free crop environment, supporting higher productivity.
Crops: Paddy (Rice).
Dosage: 1.0–1.5 liters per hectare in 200–300 liters of water.
Timing: Apply pre-emergence immediately after transplanting or before weed emergence.
Method of Application: Uniform foliar and soil spray covering the entire field.
Precautions:
Use personal protective equipment (PPE) during application.
Avoid overdose to prevent crop phytotoxicity.
Do not apply in standing water.
