THALAIVA

(Quizalofop Ethyl 5% EC)

Thalaiva is a selective, post-emergence herbicide formulated with Quizalofop Ethyl 5% EC for effective control of grassy weeds in broadleaf crops. The formulation ensures rapid foliar absorption and systemic movement within weed tissues.

Thalaiva acts by inhibiting the ACCase enzyme, which is essential for fatty acid synthesis in grass weeds. This disruption halts cell membrane formation, leading to gradual chlorosis, growth suppression, and complete weed mortality.

When applied at the correct growth stage, Thalaiva provides reliable weed control without affecting crop health, supporting uniform crop development and improved field management.
