Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG

Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG – Selective Broadleaf Weed Control for Oilseed Rape

Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG is a highly selective sulfonylurea herbicide specifically developed to target broadleaf weeds in oilseed rape (canola) and other sensitive crops. As a post-emergence solution, it works by inhibiting the ALS enzyme in weeds, blocking the production of essential amino acids required for growth and cell division. This leads to rapid growth stagnation, leaf chlorosis, and eventual death of the weed.

Because of its systemic action, your customers benefit from reliable control not just of emerged leaves but also roots and underground parts, helping prevent regrowth and reducing weed seed banks for the next season.

The 75% WDG (Water Dispersible Granule) formulation gives your growers an easy-to-handle product that dissolves quickly in water, stays uniformly suspended, and applies evenly across large areas. This means less clogging of spray nozzles, better field coverage, and minimal product waste.

Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG is designed for use in diverse climates, with stable performance in both temperate and semi-arid regions. It fits well into integrated weed management (IWM) programs, offering flexibility to rotate or tank mix with other herbicides to delay resistance development and maintain long-term efficacy.

With POMAIS, you get a consistent product backed by full batch traceability, clear labeling, and technical guidance so you can confidently deliver results to your growers season after season.

Mode of Action

Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG works as a systemic sulfonylurea herbicide, providing your growers with a reliable tool to disrupt broadleaf weeds from the inside out. Its primary mode of action is the inhibition of acetolactate synthase (ALS), a key enzyme required for the biosynthesis of essential branched-chain amino acids such as valine, leucine, and isoleucine.

Once applied, the active ingredient is quickly absorbed through the leaves and roots of the target weeds and translocated throughout the plant’s vascular system. This systemic movement means the herbicide reaches both visible foliage and underground tissues, stopping new growth and preventing weed regrowth from residual root systems.

Weeds exposed to Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG will show clear symptoms such as growth stagnation, yellowing (chlorosis) of leaves and stems, and eventual necrosis. This process typically starts within days of application, although total weed die-off can take one to three weeks depending on species and local weather conditions.

By explaining this mode of action to your customers, you help them integrate Ethametsulfuron-Methyl effectively into their weed management strategy, ensuring maximum control of problem weeds while supporting long-term resistance management.

Target Crops & Typical Uses

When you provide Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG, you help your customers tackle a wide spectrum of broadleaf weeds that can severely limit yield potential in oilseed rape and other compatible crops. Its selectivity and systemic action make it an important tool for integrated weed management.

Primary Target Crop

• Oilseed Rape (Canola, Rapeseed): This herbicide is widely used in pre- and post-emergence programs for oilseed rape fields, where effective control of early-emerging broadleaf weeds is critical for stand establishment and yield security.

Other Potential Uses

In some regions, Ethametsulfuron-Methyl may also be approved for use in certain cereals or rotational crops, depending on local registration.

Typical Target Weeds

Your growers can rely on Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG to control a broad range of annual and some perennial broadleaf weeds, including:

• Wild mustard (Sinapis arvensis)
• Shepherd’s purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris)
• Field pennycress (Thlaspi arvense)
• Redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus)
• Chickweed (Stellaria media)
• Common lambsquarters (Chenopodium album)
• Volunteer clovers and other common field weeds

By helping your buyers match the right timing and weed spectrum, you make it easy for them to recommend Ethametsulfuron-Methyl as a core part of an effective weed control program in oilseed rape production.

Recommended Dosage & Application

When you guide your customers on how to apply Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG correctly, you help them achieve the best weed control results while protecting their oilseed rape crops from unnecessary stress.

Ethametsulfuron-Methyl is designed for post-emergence applications. For optimal performance, your growers should target weeds at the 2 to 4-leaf stage when they are most susceptible. Proper weather conditions, including mild temperatures (around 15–25°C) and good soil moisture, can also enhance uptake and translocation.

It is important to remind users to:

• Avoid spraying on oilseed rape that is under severe stress from drought, frost, or pest damage.
• Ensure uniform coverage with properly calibrated equipment to minimize overlaps or skips.
• Respect local pre-harvest intervals (PHI) and follow any rotational crop restrictions that may apply.

Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG may be used alone or tank mixed with compatible graminicides if grass weeds are also a concern. Always recommend performing a jar test before large-scale tank mixing and avoid mixing with organophosphate insecticides to reduce crop injury risk.

Field Use Scenarios

When you share clear field scenarios with your customers, you help them see exactly how Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG performs under real conditions and why it is such a valuable tool for growers working with oilseed rape and other approved crops.

Scenario 1: Early-Season Broadleaf Clean-Up

In an oilseed rape field with a heavy presence of shepherd’s purse and chickweed, a grower applies Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG at 20 grams per hectare during the 2 to 4-leaf stage of the weeds. Mild temperatures and good soil moisture help the herbicide translocate effectively.
Result: Weeds stop growing within a few days, with full die-off within three weeks. The crop canopy closes faster, conserving moisture and nutrients.

Scenario 2: Tank Mixing with a Graminicide

In a field where annual grasses like wild oats are also a problem, the distributor advises growers to tank mix Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG with an approved graminicide. A jar test confirms compatibility, and growers use one pass to target both broadleaf and grassy weeds.
Result: Fewer trips through the field reduce fuel costs and labor, while the combined mode of action helps slow weed resistance.

Scenario 3: Resistance Management in a Rotational Plan

A grower rotates Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG with another broadleaf herbicide from a different chemical group in alternating seasons. The distributor also encourages cultural practices like stubble management and edge-of-field weed control.
Result: The grower delays the buildup of ALS-resistant weeds, ensuring long-term weed control success and protecting yield potential.

Scenario 4: Weather & PHI Compliance

A farmer applies Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG on a dry, calm day with no forecast for heavy rain. They observe the pre-harvest interval and check residues to comply with local MRLs.
Result: The harvested rapeseed meets local and export quality standards with minimal residue risk, protecting market access.

By showing these practical examples, you help your buyers explain to growers how to integrate Ethametsulfuron-Methyl 75% WDG into daily operations and get reliable, repeatable results.
