Balance - Summary

  • Active ingredient: 750 g/kg Isoxaflutole (IFT)
  • WDG (1.5kg pack)
  • NEW chemistry: Isoxazole (Group F)
  • Low solubility
  • Low toxicity
  • Low environmental loading
  • Activated by moisture (“Recharge activity” in dry soils)

Balance - Activity

  • Uptake: Primarily by root and shoot absorption
  • Site of Action: Meristematic and developing shoot

tissues.

  • Mode of Action: Inhibits key enzyme for

carotenoid biosynthesis/chlorophyll protection

  • Symptoms: Affected seedlings fail to emerge or

emerge, turn white and die.

  • Light has no impact on stability

Balance - Application

  • Chickpeas PSPE only (bare soil after planting)
  • 100 g/ha alone or tankmixed with simazine
  • Key weed registrations on Indian hedge mustard,

Capeweed, Prickly lettuce, Turnip weed, Sowthistle and Wild radish.

  • Apply by ground spray rig
  • DO NOT incorporate
  • Stubble cover has virtually no effect
  • No rainfast period, can apply while raining
  • Addition of knockdown herbicide will control weeds

already present

Balance PSPE - Safety to Chickpeas

  • Establishment counts show no effect from

Balance.

  • Slight chlorosis and biomass reductions

sometimes observed, but not to a concerning

  • level. Can be greater in dry seasons.
  • Chickpeas grown on very light soils (<10% clay)

have shown greater effects from Balance. These soil types are not recommended.

Re-cropping - Status

  • Current:

– Apply Balance 750 WG only to cropping areas which are to be left to fallow, – Or where the following crop will be either chickpeas, cereals

  • r maize.

– Suggested or indicative plantbacks are:

  • Canola

> 10 months (could be 18 months)

  • Field pea

10 months

  • Faba bean,

10 months

  • Sub clover

10 months

  • Vetch

9 months

  • Maize

4 months

– Plantback for lablab, mungbean, soybean, sorghum, sunflower, cotton are greater than 4 months with further results required. – Minimum rainfall for each crop plantback situation yet to be described.

Other Considerations

  • Compatibility:

– Balance may be tank-mixed with simazine formulations at the appropriate label rates for each product. Balance should not be tank-mixed with trifluralin. – No additional mix partners are planned.

  • Stubble Effects:

– Weed control appears marginally lower for weed control (<5%), however commercial results have shown good control under a range of stubble covers – suggesting rainfall after application is more important than level of stubble.

  • Rainfall:

– Main weed control concern with lack of rainfall is possible loss

  • f activity for wild radish control - this is being investigated.

Balance - Summary

  • An unrivaled herbicide for broad-spectrum

weed control in chickpeas.

  • High loading WDG (750 g/Kg)
  • Group F
  • PSPE
  • Easy rate alone - 100 g/ha
  • Easy tank mix option with simazine to

broaden spectrum (grasses etc.) - 100g/ha + 1 - 1.5L/ha
