Butachlor is a herbicide of the acetanilide class.[3] It is used as a selective pre-emergent herbicide[1] to control annual grasses and some broad-leaved weeds. It was introduced circa 1970.[4] It is extensively used in India in the form of granules and emulsifiable concentrate in rice as post emergence herbicide, and 2,699 tonnes (5,950,000 lb) was sold in India in 2005-06, declining to 372 tonnes (820,000 lb) in 2009-10.[5]
Butachlor's herbicide mode of action is to prevent formation of very long chain fatty acids; this makes its HRAC classification Group K (Australia), Group K3 (global) and Group 15 (numeric).
Application
Butachlor is typically applied at 1.25-2 kg/ha active ingredient.[5]
