SHIFT is a selective pre-emergence herbicide formulated with Pretilachlor 50% EC as the active ingredient. It is primarily used in paddy (rice) cultivation to control a broad spectrum of annual grasses, sedges, and some broadleaf weeds. The product works by inhibiting cell division and weed seed germination, ensuring a weed-free environment for young rice plants during their critical early growth stage.

Key features & benefits:

• Pre-emergence action: Applied before weed emergence to prevent weed seed germination.

• Target weeds: Controls weeds like Echinochloa crus-galli (barnyard grass), Cyperus difformis, Fimbristylis miliacea, and other common rice weeds.

• Crop safety: Safe for transplanted rice when used at recommended doses.

• Formulation: Emulsifiable concentrate (EC) for easy mixing and spraying.

Usage:

• Recommended for transplanted rice fields.

• Apply within 3–5 days after transplanting rice seedlings, ensuring the field is flooded and water is retained for a few days after application.
