Deft Metsulfuron Methyl: High Efficacy Wheat Weedicide
Deft (Metsulfuron Methyl 20%WP) is a highly potent, selective systemic herbicide distributed by Saver Enterprise in Pakistan. Formulated as a wettable powder, Deft is specifically registered to target and control broadleaf weeds in wheat crops, providing farmers with a highly cost-effective weed management solution.
Systemic Target Action
Classified under HRAC Group B, Metsulfuron-methyl acts as an inhibitor of the acetolactate synthase (ALS) enzyme. It halts cell division and weed growth immediately after absorption by leaves and roots. Targeted weeds include Bathu (Chenopodium album), Lehli (Convolvulus arvensis), Shahtra, Senji, and Maina. Weeds stop competing with wheat crops within 24-48 hours and die completely within 10-14 days.
Application and Spray Quality
Apply Deft at the 2-4 leaf stage of weeds. Dissolve 20gm of powder per acre using 100-120 liters of water. Always calibrate spray equipment and use flat-fan nozzles to achieve uniform coverage over the weed canopy.
