Propic
Propaquizfop 10% EC
Propic (Propaquizfop 10% EC) is a selective post-emergence grass herbicide from Ratnakar India Ltd, Ahmedabad — India's trusted agrochemical manufacturer, supplier, and exporter. Propaquizfop inhibits ACCase (acetyl-CoA carboxylase) enzyme, blocking fatty acid biosynthesis in grassy weed species while remaining safe to broad-leaf crops. Propic controls annual grasses and broad-leaf weeds in soybean, black gram, onion, jute, cotton, and groundnut. Manufactured and exported by Ratnakar India from Gujarat, Propic is a reliable selective post-emergence graminicide for farmers growing broad-leaf crops where grass weed competition is a significant challenge affecting crop yield and quality.

FAQ for Propic
What weeds does Propic control?
Propic controls annual grasses and some broad-leaf weeds in soybean, black gram, onion, jute, cotton, and groundnut through its selective ACCase inhibitor post-emergence herbicidal activity.
How does Propaquizfop work?
Propaquizfop inhibits ACCase (acetyl-CoA carboxylase) enzyme essential for fatty acid biosynthesis in grasses. Without fatty acids, grassy weeds cannot maintain membrane integrity and die within 1–3 weeks.
Is Propic safe for broad-leaf crops?
Yes, Propic is selective for broad-leaf crops (soybean, groundnut, cotton, onion) because ACCase in broad-leaf plants has a different structural form that is not inhibited by propaquizfop.
When should Propic be applied?
Apply Propic post-emergence when grassy weeds have 2–5 leaves and are actively growing. Adding an approved adjuvant improves coverage and absorption on grass weed surfaces.
Can Propic be mixed with broad-leaf herbicides?
Yes, Propic can be tank-mixed with broad-leaf weed herbicides for complete weed flora management in crops. Always conduct a jar test and check label compatibility before tank mixing products.
