Awkira is a powerful pre-emergent herbicide developed by PI Industries to tackle resistant Phalaris minor (littleseed canarygrass) in wheat crops. This troublesome weed can significantly reduce wheat yields, but Awkira offers a reliable solution for effective control.

Key Features:

• Pre-emergent Action: Applied before weeds emerge, providing season-long control and reducing the need for later herbicide applications.

• Targeted Control: Specifically designed to combat resistant Phalaris minor, minimizing competition and allowing wheat crops to thrive.

• Excellent Crop Safety: Demonstrates a high degree of safety for wheat crops, ensuring healthy growth and maximizing yield potential.

• Convenient Application: Offers a hassle-free alternative to post-emergent herbicides, simplifying weed management for farmers.

• Enhanced Yield: By effectively controlling weeds, Awkira helps wheat crops achieve their full yield potential.

Active Ingredient:

• Pyroxasulfone 85% WG

Mode of Action:

Awkira works by disrupting the biosynthesis of very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) in the target weeds. This interferes with cell membrane development, ultimately leading to the death of the weed seedlings.

Application Method:

• Pre-emergent soil application using a knapsack sprayer with a flat fan nozzle or a PI spray machine.

• Apply within 0-3 days of sowing.

Important Notes:

• Ensure the field is well-prepared, uniform, and free from clods and residues for optimal results.

• Always follow the recommended dosage and safety instructions provided on the product label.

• This product is intended for professional agricultural use.

If you're a wheat farmer facing challenges with resistant Phalaris minor, Awkira can be a valuable tool for achieving a clean field and maximizing your wheat yield.
