Apparent Bow Saw 600 500g

Apparent Bow Saw 600 Herbicide

Apparent Bow Saw 600 is a selective systemic herbicide designed for the control of broadleaf weeds in winter cereal crops, pastures, rights of way, and commercial and industrial areas. It is rapidly absorbed through the leaves and roots of weeds, effectively inhibiting their growth within 24 hours. While highly effective against target weeds, Bow Saw does not provide long-term soil residual weed control, making it an ideal post-emergence solution.

Key Features

• Selective systemic herbicide for broadleaf weed control
• Rapidly absorbed through leaves and roots for quick action
• Inhibits enzyme acetolactate synthase to stop weed growth
• Works within 24 hours to prevent competition with crops
• Suitable for use in winter cereal crops, pastures, and industrial areas
• Best results achieved when applied early post-crop emergence

Weeds Controlled

• Broadleaf weeds in winter cereal crops
• Broadleaf weeds and brush species (woody weeds) in pastures
• Weeds in rights of way, commercial, and industrial areas

Application Guidelines

• Apply early post-crop emergence (3-leaf stage to before booting) when weeds are no greater than 5 cm in height or diameter
• Best results achieved when rainfall wets the soil to a depth of 5–7.5 cm within four weeks of application
• Weed control may be slower if applied during adverse conditions or when weeds are not actively growing
• Apparent Bow Saw 600 does not provide long-term soil residual control; other crops may be sensitive to low concentrations of herbicide residues

Mode of Action

Bow Saw 600 inhibits the enzyme acetolactate synthase, which is essential for weed growth. This prevents weeds from competing with crops, promoting healthier plant development.

Environmental Considerations

• Breakdown of the herbicide in soil depends on conditions such as pH, temperature, moisture, and organic matter
• Wet, warm, acidic soils with high organic matter levels promote faster breakdown
• Non-target crops may be sensitive to residues; follow sprayer clean-up and crop rotation recommendations carefully
