Alion Plus - Indaziflam 1.65% w/w + Glyphosate Isopropylammonium 44.63% w/w SC - Bayer

Bayer Alion Plus Indaziflam + Glyphosate SC Herbicide

Bayer Alion Plus is a combination herbicide containing Indaziflam 1.65% w/w (2% w/v) and Glyphosate Isopropylammonium 44.63% w/w (40% w/v) in an SC formulation. Bayer presents it for foliar and soil/pre-emergence weed-control activity in tea and grapes. The Government of India's cited Major Uses table provides a complete direction row only for tea, so grape directions must come from the current physical Indian label rather than from the tea table.

The two active ingredients have different modes of action. Indaziflam inhibits cellulose synthesis and has soil activity that can prevent weed germination and emergence. Glyphosate is a non-selective systemic herbicide that inhibits EPSPS, an enzyme needed for aromatic amino-acid synthesis. Because the Glyphosate component is non-selective, spray placement and drift control are important around green crop tissue and other desirable plants.

Verified Product Highlights

• Exact formulation: Indaziflam 1.65% w/w (2% w/v) + Glyphosate Isopropylammonium 44.63% w/w (40% w/v) SC.
• Two action components: Indaziflam provides cellulose-synthesis-inhibiting soil activity; Glyphosate provides non-selective systemic foliar activity.
• Manufacturer crop scope: Bayer's current page identifies tea and grapes.
• Government direction available here: one complete tea row with weeds, rate, water volume and waiting period.
• Resistance classification: HRAC/WSSA Groups 29 and 9.
• Verified store pack: the existing 1-litre variant is within Bayer's current 1 L, 5 L and 10 L pack range.

Government Major-Use Direction Verified for Tea

The following values reproduce the Government of India's Major Uses of Herbicides table as of 31 March 2024 for this exact formulation. They remain in per-hectare units so no unsupported per-acre, per-litre, pump or tank conversion is created.

The cited Government row does not state an application date or weed-growth stage. Bayer's current page also mentions grapes, but the tea rate, water volume and waiting period above are not grape directions. Confirm the current physical Alion Plus label before use.

Application and Resistance Stewardship

• Identify the crop and weed species, then confirm that both appear on the current physical Alion Plus label.
• Use directed application and prevent spray or drift from contacting green crop tissue, nearby crops or other desirable plants because Glyphosate is non-selective.
• Measure accurately and calibrate equipment for the label-directed spray area, water volume and coverage.
• Do not derive a per-acre, per-litre, spray-pump or tank rate from the hectare values on this page.
• Groups 29 + 9 can inform resistance planning, but the premix is not resistance-proof and must not be advertised as controlling every resistant weed population.
• Any alternative treatment must be independently registered for the same crop, weed and timing. This page does not authorize a tank mix, co-application or compulsory spray sequence.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Bayer Alion Plus?
It is an SC combination herbicide containing Indaziflam and Glyphosate Isopropylammonium, with foliar and soil/pre-emergence activity described by Bayer.

Which crops does Bayer currently list?
Bayer's current page identifies tea and grapes. The Government direction reproduced on this page is for tea only; grape directions require the current physical label.

Which weeds are in the verified Government tea row?
Ageratum sp., Borreria sp. and Eleusine indica. This is not a claim that the product controls every weed in tea or grapes.

What is the verified tea rate?
The cited table lists 2.5-3.5 L formulation/ha in 500 L water/ha, with a 14-day waiting period. It does not state the application timing.

Can the hectare rate be converted into a dose per litre or 15-litre pump?
Not safely from the formulation figure alone. Spray-area calibration and the label-directed water volume are essential, so this page keeps the registered hectare units.

Who may apply a Glyphosate-containing product?
The legal position has changed through notification and court proceedings. Confirm the current central, state and local rules and the current label before sale or application; this page does not establish user eligibility.

Safety and Use Notice

Read the current Bayer Alion Plus pack and leaflet before handling or application. Follow their directions for authorized users, protective equipment, mixing, directed application, drift prevention, re-entry, first aid, storage, disposal and environmental precautions. Keep away from children, food and feed. Do not use a damaged, leaking, unlabelled or expired pack. The physical label and current applicable law are the final authorities if they differ from this summary.
