Rekishi Herbicide (Sulfosulfuron 75% WG): The Wheat Protection Expert

Stop Phalaris minor (Mandusi/Gulli Danda) and tough broadleaf weeds in their tracks with Rekishi.

Rekishi (by IFFCO-MC) is a premium systemic herbicide designed specifically for wheat farmers. Using advanced Japanese technology, it targets resistant weeds that mimic wheat, ensuring your crop gets all the nutrition without competition. It is the ultimate solution for the "Phalaris-Chenopodium" weed complex in the Indo-Gangetic plains.

Best For: Wheat crops facing heavy infestation of grassy and broadleaf weeds.

Technical Specifications

How It Works: Mode of Action

Rekishi works by starving the weed. It inhibits the ALS enzyme, which acts as a "food factory" for essential amino acids. Without these, the weed cannot grow or divide cells.

1. Absorption: The herbicide is rapidly absorbed through the leaves and roots, moving via the plant's vascular system (Xylem and Phloem).
2. Stoppage: Essential amino acid production (Valine, Leucine) stops. The weed stops growing within 48 hours.
3. Elimination: Leaves turn yellow (chlorosis), veins turn purple, and the growing point dies. Complete plant death occurs in 14-21 days.

Note: Wheat plants naturally break down this chemical, making them immune to the spray.

Dosage & Application Guide

The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. Using less water or the wrong nozzle will reduce efficacy.

Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)

*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting. Note: The 13.5g sachet is pre-measured for exactly one acre.

How to Apply: Best Practices

• Timing: Apply 30 to 35 Days After Sowing (DAS). This is typically 3-5 days after the first irrigation when the soil is moist (at field capacity). Do not delay beyond the 4-leaf stage of the weed.
• Mixing: Always use the surfactant provided. Dissolve the granules in a small bucket of water first, then add to the main tank. Add surfactant last to avoid foam.
• Coverage: Use a "Flat Fan" or "Flood Jet" nozzle. Do not use cone nozzles (mist blowers) as they cause drift and poor coverage on grass weeds.
  
• Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
