Weeds are one of the biggest challenges for cotton farmers. Unchecked, they compete with the cotton crop for nutrients and disrupt the healthy growth of plants. Farmers rely on manual weeding, which is expensive and time-consuming, or herbicides such as Bayer’s Ghasa that effectively terminate the menace of weeds in cotton.
The Ghasa herbicide combines two active ingredients—pyrithiobac sodium and quizalofop-ethyl—which provide exceptional weed control in cotton crops. It is excellent for the crops, easy to apply, and safe for the environment.
Ghasa is a selective herbicide that offers broad-spectrum weed control in cotton crops with its innovative dual action.
The herbicide is easy to apply, safe for the environment, and has low mammalian toxicity.
Ghasa herbicide is a combination of two active ingredients. The pyritobac sodium component is absorbed by roots and shoots and moves to growing points where it inhibits acetolactate synthase (ALS) in amino acid synthesis, effectively controlling weeds.
Quizalofop-ethyl 4% MEC in Ghasa predominantly inhibits the synthesis of fatty acids in the meristem tissues of grassy weeds.
