Actagon® Pre-Emergence Herbicide

Get the latest Actagon® news, product updates and developments covering ADAMA’s pre-emergence herbicide for wheat in India. Actagon® is a ready-mix liquid formulation containing pyroxasulfone and metribuzin, developed for early-season control of Phalaris minor and other important grass and broadleaf weeds. The product is registered in India, with its launch focused particularly on wheat-growing states such as Punjab and Haryana.

The product is relevant to India’s growing focus on wheat weed management and herbicide resistance, particularly where Phalaris minor has become difficult to control with commonly used post-emergence herbicides. ADAMA says the two-active-ingredient formulation provides residual weed control and can simplify application by eliminating the need for on-farm tank mixing. Field trials conducted across major wheat-growing regions were reported to show control under high weed pressure.
