FMC Affuron Tembotrione 34.4% SC is a highly effective selective herbicide designed for controlling broadleaf and grassy weeds in maize crops. The active ingredient, Tembotrione, belongs to the HPPD (4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase) inhibitor class of herbicides, which disrupts carotenoid biosynthesis in weeds, leading to their bleaching and eventual death. This action ensures long-lasting weed control, allowing maize crops to thrive without competition for nutrients, water, and sunlight.
