Abstract
The active ingredient of DUAL Gold 960 EC is S-metolachlor the active enantiomer of metolachlor. Metolachlor is the active ingredient of DUAL 720 EC. S-metolachlor is approximately 1.61 times more active than metolachlor. The amount of active ingredient used is about 40 less than metolachlor and consequently will bring significant environmental benefits including a reduction of chemical load and packaging material. Our trials showed that DUAL Gold 960 EC at 223-446 g aifha provided sufficient control of both goosegrass Eleusine indica L. Gaertn. and common crabgrass Digitaria ciliaris Retz. Koel. in the cropping season. At these rates of 223-446 g aifha DUAL Gold 960 EC also showed excellent crop safety to choi-sum longbean cucumber eggplant and sweet com.
