Farm Chemical Mesotrione

Appearance:Yellow crystalline powder We produce it by ourselves.

Trade Names	Calliston;Mesotrione
CAS NO.:	104206-82-8
Molecular Formula	C14H13NO7S
Chemical Family	triketone
Crop and/or Non-Crop Registrations	Corn(field,seed and sweet)
Sensitive Weeds	Annual broadleaf weeds,including triazine and group 2 resistant biotypes.
Uptake and Translocation	Readily absorbed by,shoots,roots,stems and leaves and thentranslocated to other plant parts.
Basis of Selectivity	Inhibits the HPPD enzyme found in photosynthetic cells of susceptible species.Symptoms on susceptible plants are bleaching followed by necrosis.Tolerant species rapidly metabolize mesotrione.
Application Methods	Preemergence and postmergence up to the 8-leaf stage of field,seed and sweet corn.Postemergence applications require the addition of a non-ionic surfactant.
Residual Activity	Degradation primarily by soil microbial action.<esotrione will provide residual control of annual broadleaf weeds.
Unique Characteristics	When mesotione is tank-mixed with atrazine there is a synergistic effedt and improved control of broadleaf weed species.Mesotrione can be tank-mixed with either a soilapplied or postmergence grass herbicide for on-pass weed control.Mesotrione has low volatility and poses a reduced risk to neatby sensitive crops.
