Application 
Selective systemic herbicide, absorbed primarily by the germinating shoots, and secondarily by the roots. Used preemergence for the control of annual grasses and certain broadqeaved weeds in rice, both seeded and transplanted. It shows selectivity in wheat barley, cotton, peanuts, sugar beet, and several brassica crops. Effective rates range from 1.0 4.5 kg a. I. /ha. Activity is dependent on water availability such as rainfall following treatment, overhead irrigation or applications to standing water as in rice culture.
