Usage

Description

Morfamquat (dichloride, content >65%) is a selective herbicide that primarily affects dicots, but not monocots, at normal field rates. Its mechanism of action is not entirely understood, but it is believed to be related to the enzymatic conversion of morfamquat to paraquat by esterases that cleave the bulky side groups on the molecule. Once inside the cell, morfamquat behaves identically to paraquat.

Uses

Used in Agricultural Industry:
Morfamquat (dichloride, content >65%) is used as a selective herbicide for controlling dicotyledonous weeds in various crops. The application reason is its ability to target dicots without affecting monocots, providing an effective and environmentally friendly weed control solution.
Used in Weed Management:
Morfamquat (dichloride, content >65%) is used as a weed management tool for selectively controlling dicotyledonous weeds in agricultural fields. The application reason is its selective action, which allows for the control of specific weeds without harming the desired crop, thus maintaining crop yield and quality.
