New rice herbicides

Here are some new rice herbicides that have been introduced or are in development:

  1. Imazalil: A new generation of imidazolinone herbicides, imazalil is a selective herbicide for post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in rice. It is more effective than existing imidazolinone herbicides and has a longer residual activity.
  2. Pyroxasulfone: A sulfonylurea herbicide, pyroxasulfone is a new active ingredient for pre-emergence control of grassy weeds in rice. It is more effective than existing sulfonylurea herbicides and has a longer residual activity.
  3. Flumioxazin: A new active ingredient for pre-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in rice, flumioxazin is a dinitroaniline herbicide that is more effective than existing dinitroaniline herbicides.
  4. Benzofenap: A new active ingredient for post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in rice, benzofenap is a pyrazole herbicide that is more effective than existing pyrazole herbicides.
  5. Fentrazamide: A new active ingredient for post-emergence control of grassy weeds in rice, fentrazamide is a triazolone herbicide that is more effective than existing triazolone herbicides.
  6. Pinoxaden: A new active ingredient for post-emergence control of grassy weeds in rice, pinoxaden is a cyclohexanedione herbicide that is more effective than existing cyclohexanedione herbicides.
  7. Tebufenozide: A new active ingredient for post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in rice, tebufenozide is a diacylhydrazine herbicide that is more effective than existing diacylhydrazine herbicides.
  8. Flumiclorac: A new active ingredient for pre-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in rice, flumiclorac is a pyrimidinylsulfonamide herbicide that is more effective than existing pyrimidinylsulfonamide herbicides.
  9. Bromacil: A new active ingredient for pre-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in rice, bromacil is a uracil herbicide that is more effective than existing uracil herbicides.
  10. Sulfentrazone: A new active ingredient for pre-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in rice, sulfentrazone is a sulfonylurea herbicide that is more effective than existing sulfonylurea herbicides.

These new rice herbicides offer improved efficacy, safety, and environmental profile compared to existing herbicides. However, it's essential to note that the development and registration of new herbicides are subject to rigorous testing and regulatory approval processes to ensure their safe use in agriculture.
