Omnistar Plus is a broad-spectrum, early post-emergent systemic herbicide primarily used in transplanted rice (paddy). It features a novel chemistry with a unique formulation designed specifically for post-emergent weed control in paddy. Omnistar Plus offers a distinct application window targeting weeds at the 1–3 leaf stage, ensuring timely and effective control.
It combines two ALS-inhibiting herbicides, delivering synergistic action against a wide range of difficult-to-control weeds, particularly Echinochloa spp. and Cyperus spp. The mode of action involves the inhibition of the ALS (Acetolactate Synthase) enzyme, which is essential for the synthesis of branched-chain amino acids (valine, leucine, and isoleucine) in weeds. This disruption in protein synthesis leads to the cessation of cell division, ultimately causing gradual weed death.
Benefits
1- Omnistar Plus is a broad-spectrum post-emergent herbicide that controls all kinds of key weeds like grassy, broadleaf, and sedges in the Paddy Crop,
2- Safe to rice and follow crop,
3- Season-long duration of weed control during the critical crop weed competition period,
4- Safe eco-toxicological profile,
5- Rain fastness of 6 hours,
Strictly apply at the 1-3 weed leaf stage.
Pre-emergent application and late post-emergent application (weeds beyond the 3-leaf stage) should be strictly avoided.
