Every year, wheat farmers in Punjab and Haryana face the big challenge of controlling weeds, mainly phalaris minor. This is a stubborn and difficult-to-kill weed that grows in wheat crops, affecting the yield. Farmers spend a lot of money, effort, and time managing this weed. Many herbicides are ineffective, requiring repeated applications, which leads to the weeds developing herbicide resistance. To solve this issue, Bayer India developed Momiji herbicide. It is an innovative herbicide that provides exceptional weed control in wheat, soybean, and maize crops.

Momiji contains pyroxasulfone, a chemical that protects wheat, soybean, and maize crops against phalaris minor and other weeds. The herbicide can be easily applied using mechanical sprayers or drones, ensuring convenient and efficient weed management with excellent crop safety.

The Momiji herbicide contains pyroxasulfone, which disrupts the production of fatty acids in weeds. It specifically blocks multiple steps in their growth process, causing an accumulation of fatty acid precursors.

This disruption hampers the weed’s normal functioning, leading to its death.
