Mesotrione is an herbicide used in the agrochemicals and fertilizers market. It is a selective, post-emergence herbicide used to control broadleaf weeds in corn and other crops. It works by inhibiting the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase, which is essential for the production of carotenoids in plants. Mesotrione is a member of the triketone family of herbicides, which are known for their high selectivity and low toxicity.
Mesotrione is used in a variety of crops, including corn, sorghum, and turf. It is also used in non-crop areas such as roadsides, rights-of-way, and industrial sites. It is effective against a wide range of weeds, including pigweed, lambsquarters, and velvetleaf.
Mesotrione is manufactured by several companies, including BASF, Syngenta, Dow AgroSciences, and Nufarm. It is available in a variety of formulations, including liquid, granular, and wettable powder. Show Less Read more
