Isoxazoline carboxamide safener synergies: BayerRecent Research Landscape

Off-target crop damage from potent herbicides increases yield loss and financial risk. These formulations integrate specific safener agents like benoxacor to modulate metabolic detoxification pathways in desirable plants.

What technical problems is Bayer addressing in Isoxazoline carboxamide safener synergies?

Uncontrolled competitive plant growth

(23)evidences

Herbicidal active substances often cause unintended damage to non-target crops. Reducing this chemical stress prevents yield loss and plant death.

Insufficient crop selectivity

(21)evidences

Chemical weed control agents often cause unintended damage or growth inhibition to the primary crop. Reducing this physiological stress ensures crop safety while maintaining herbicidal efficacy.

Crop phytotoxicity and narrow spectrum

(20)evidences

Individual herbicides often fail to control a diverse range of resistant or varied weed species. Expanding the efficacy range through synergistic combinations prevents crop yield loss and reduces the need for multiple separate applications.

Crop phytotoxicity from herbicides

(14)evidences

Chemical weed control agents frequently cause unintended physiological damage or growth inhibition to the primary cultivated species. Mitigating this non-target toxicity ensures crop survival while maintaining herbicidal efficacy against weeds.
