Ppo inhibitor synergistic herbicidal formulations: SyngentaRecent Research Landscape

Herbicide resistance in sugar cane cultivation increases crop loss and management costs. These methods utilize specific chemical combinations to restore efficacy against PPO-resistant weed populations.

What technical problems is Syngenta addressing in Ppo inhibitor synergistic herbicidal formulations?

Inadequate weed control spectrum

(16)evidences

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

Herbicide resistance in weeds

(6)evidences

Targeted weeds have evolved biological mechanisms to survive standard PPO-inhibitor applications. Overcoming this resistance ensures agricultural yield protection and chemical efficacy.

Insufficient weed control spectrum

(5)evidences

Narrow efficacy ranges and resistant weed populations in turfgrass limit the utility of single-agent treatments. Expanding the control spectrum prevents competitive vegetation growth and maintains turf quality.
