Maize mixed-weed program: tembotrione sourcing guide

Use the local registration and label to define crop stage, target weeds, required partners and restrictions before requesting a tembotrione quotation.

How to verify usage guidance for Tembotrione

Start with the exact product label approved by the authority in the country of use. The FAO approved-label directory explains where to find national label records. Record the directions below before comparing a supplier's offer.

Label checklist for a maize weed program

Exact product and registration
Match the product name, registration number, registrant and current label version to the destination-country authority record. A label from another market is only a reference.
Maize type and crop stage
Confirm the maize types and crop stages covered. Some labels restrict use on particular maize types or varieties.
Safener and adjuvant
Check whether the registered product contains a safener, as many tembotrione products are formulated with isoxadifen-ethyl, and which adjuvant the label requires.
Weeds and partners
Record the weed species and stages listed and use only the tank-mix partners named on the label.
OD formulation handling
The catalogue candidate is 8% OD. Record the storage, re-mixing and tank-mixing instructions stated on the label.

Tembotrione is an HPPD inhibitor in HRAC Group 27. Resistance to HPPD inhibitors has been reported in some Amaranthus populations. Check the HRAC herbicide mode-of-action classification and local resistance advice. A classification is not crop registration or evidence that a product will work in every program.

Tembotrione usage questions

What symptoms does tembotrione cause?

HPPD inhibitors typically bleach susceptible plant tissue. Symptoms are not a substitute for the weed-control claims on the approved label.

Can tembotrione be used in every maize field?

Only within the maize types, stages and conditions on the local label. Crop safety depends on the registered product, including any safener it contains.

What should an importer prepare before ordering the OD?

Send the registration or label reference, whether a safener is required, pack size and label language. Ask for the specification, SDS and a batch-specific COA.
