Flupoxam is a new herbicide recently developed by
Kureha Chemical Industry Co. designed for the pre- and
early post-emergence control of annual broadleaf weeds
in winter cereal crops (11). It is currently being marketed
in France under the trade name Ovation, with
the formulation 50 g/L flupoxam + 400 g/L isoproturon
(suspension concentrate).
Flupoxam controls a broad spectrum
of annual broadleaf weedswithout adversely affecting winter
grain crops. In combination with the proper gramicide,
flupoxam can control a wide variety of weeds in cereal
crops. The ability to vary the timing of application of
this herbicide (either pre- or early post-emergence) is an
added bonus。
ChEBI: Flupoxam is a benzyl ether.
