Adama Dekel is a selective, broad-spectrum, early post-emergence herbicide containing Propaquizafop 5% + Oxyflurofen 12% EC, which is effective against grassy and broadleaf weeds. It works by inhibiting an essential enzyme that stops lipid biosynthesis and inhibiting the PPO enzyme, killing the weed. The Dekel herbicide is broad-spectrum and a cost-effective solution while being safe to use, making it a great choice for onion farmers.
Dual Application: Adama Dekel is effective against grassy and broadleaf weeds, making it versatile.
Prolonged Activity: Dekel herbicide provides extended protection as Propaquizafop 5% + Oxyflurofen 12% EC offers strong residual activity.
Cost-Efficient: This Propaquizafop 5% + Oxyflurofen 12% EC provides strong protection at low doses, making it cost-efficient.
Selective Properties: Propaquizafop 5% + Oxyflurofen 12% EC has no adverse effects on onion crops, ensuring healthy crops.
Dekel Herbicide Uses target both grassy and broadleaf weed species in Onion cultivation:
Grassy Weeds: Barnyard Grass (Echinochloa colona), Johnson Grass, Crabgrass (Digitaria spp.), Crowfoot Grass (Dactyloctenium aegyptium)
Broadleaf Weeds: Pigweed (Amaranthus spp.), Lamb's Quarters (Chenopodium album), Purslane (Portulaca oleracea), Chickweed
Registered Crop: Onion (primary registration); also widely used on Tomato, Wheat, Tea, Sugarcane, and other vegetables
The Dekel Herbicide Dose Per Litre is 1.75 ml per litre of water — equivalent to 350 ml per acre in 200 litres of water and 26.25 ml per 15L pump.

Onion | Grassy and Broadleaf Weeds | 350 ml | 26.25 ml | Early post-emergence — weeds at 2–4 leaf stage | As per label |
Read the label carefully before preparing the spray solution.
Wear suitable protective equipment — gloves, goggles, and a face mask — throughout the mixing and application process.
Measure 1.75 ml of Dekel herbicide per litre of water required for the spray volume.
Mix the measured quantity accurately into the required water volume in the sprayer tank and stir well before spraying.
Apply as a uniform foliar spray, making sure the spray covers all emerged weeds evenly.
Apply when weeds are at the 2–4 leaf stage and actively growing — Adama Dekel works fastest on young, growing weeds during this window.
Ensure adequate soil moisture is present at the time of application — dry soil reduces Dekel herbicide efficacy.
Choose a non-windy, non-rainy day — early morning or late afternoon are the best times to avoid drift and evaporation.
Apply Adama Dekel in the early morning or late afternoon on a calm day. The critical application window is when weeds are at the 2–4 leaf stage with adequate soil moisture — this gives the fastest and most complete weed kill from a single Dekel herbicide spray.
Frequency of Application: One well-timed early post-emergence spray is generally enough for season-long weed control. A second application may be considered in fields with very high weed pressure — always follow label guidance on repeat use.
Re-Entry Period: Allow the spray to dry fully before entering the treated field. Standard precautions apply — no specific extended re-entry period.
Tank-Mix Compatibility: Dekel herbicide is compatible with most other herbicides. Always do a small jar test before combining with unfamiliar products. Do not add adjuvants or stickers — mixing spreaders with Adama Dekel is not recommended.
Apply only when weeds are actively growing — Adama Dekel is not effective on dormant or water-stressed weeds.
Avoid spraying on rainy or very windy days to prevent wash-off and drift.
Do not disturb the soil surface after application to avoid breaking the residual activity layer.
Wear gloves, goggles, and a face mask while handling or spraying Dekel herbicide.
Do not smoke, eat, or drink during mixing or spraying.
Avoid skin and eye contact — if contact occurs, wash immediately with plenty of clean water.
Keep Adama Dekel out of reach of children, pets, and livestock at all times.
For agricultural and gardening use only.
Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after every spray session.
Triple rinse empty containers, puncture, and dispose of per local waste guidelines.
Store Propaquizafop 5% + Oxyflurofen 12% EC in its original sealed container in a cool, dry location away from sunlight and moisture.
Keep away from food, animal feed, and seeds.
Store out of reach of children and farm animals.
Storage Temperature: Below 35°C.
