Butachlor is a chloroacetamide herbicide that inhibits the synthesis of very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs), which are essential for cell membrane and cuticle formation in germinating weed seedlings. It is absorbed mainly through the coleoptile and young shoots of germinating grasses and sedges, disrupting cell division and elongation before or shortly after emergence. Butachlor falls under HRAC/WSSA Group 15 (VLCFA inhibitors).
Butamaxx (Butachlor 50% EC) is diluted in the recommended volume of water and applied as a pre-emergence spray to the soil surface in transplanted paddy, using standard knapsack or boom sprayers, following the timing recommended on the approved product label.
