Linuron 400 SC Herbicide 10L
LINU10
Active Ingredient:
450 g/litre LINURON in the form of a suspension concentrate.
Controls Mainly:
Broadleaf Weeds.
- Fathen.
- Nightshade.
- Chickweed.
- Some Annual Grasses.
Used In:
- Carrots.
- Onions.
- Potatoes.
- Maize.
- Sweetcorn.
- Asparagus, etc.
Mixing Rates Per Tank (Field Examples)
~ Typical label rates vary by crop, but generally 1.0 – 2.0 L/ha (most situations).
- Example: 200L Tank.
~ Scenario A: 200 L/ha (1 tank = 1 ha).
Rate: 1.5 L/ha Add 1.5 L per 200L tank.
~ Scenario B: 100 L/ha (tank covers 2 ha).
Rate: 1.5 L/ha Add 3.0 L per 200L tank.
~ Scenario C: Light soils / lighter weed pressure.
Rate: 1.0 L/ha 200 L/ha → 1.0 L per tank.
~ Quick Rule Tank rate = (ha per tank) × (L/ha rate).
Mixing Tips(Important with Linuron Flo 450 SC)
- Keep constant agitation (SC formulation settles).
- Add early in tank (unlike Insecticides).
- Works best with even soil coverage.
- Needs moisture (rain/irrigation) to activate.
Best Alternatives / Rotation Partners.
- Linuron Flo 450 SC = Group 5 (PSII inhibitor) → resistance risk if overused.
Good Rotation Options:
- Group 15 (Residual Grass + Broadleaf) S-metolachlor (e.g. Dual-type products).
~ Strong partner in Maize/Sweetcorn.
- Group 27 (HPPD inhibitors) Mesotrione.
~ Excellent on Fathen & Broadleaf Weeds.
- Group 3 (Dinitroanilines) Trifluralin / Pendimethalin.
~ Pre-emergence Grass + some Broadleaf.
- Group 9 (Non-selective) Glyphosate (burn-down before crop).
~ Clean start before Linuron Flo 450 SC residual.
~ Simple Rotation Strategy.
- Don’t stack Group 5 repeatedly.
Example:
- Pre: Glyphosate.
- Residual: Linuron Flo 450 SC.
- Follow-up: Mesotrione.
Suitability By Crop (Very Practical)
~ Carrots / Parsnips.
- Excellent fit One of the main Linuron Flo 450 SC Crops.
Controls:
- Fathen.
- Nightshade.
- Chickweed.
Often used:
- Pre-emergence.
- Early post (careful timing).
~ Onions / Leeks.
- Very common use Good on Small Broadleaf Weeds.
Crop Sensitivity:
- Timing is critical (small Onions easily damaged).
~ Potatoes.
- Good fit Used pre-emergence or early post.
Controls:
- Nightshade.
- Early Broadleaf Weeds.
~ Often mixed with Metribuzin or other residuals.
~ Maize / Sweetcorn Moderate use Helps control Early Broadleaf Weeds.
~ Usually NOT enough alone.
~ Best used In combination with S-metolachlor Mesotrione.
~ Asparagus.
- Very useful Strong residual control Fits well in perennial systems.
~ Pipfruit / Stonefruit.
- Niche use Strip spraying under trees Residual Weed Control.
Key Practical - Takeaways.
~ Strengths Strong residual control Good on Fathen + Nightshade Widely trusted in Veg Crops.
~ Weaknesses Needs soil moisture to activate.
- Weak on, Large Weeds, Some Grasses, Resistance risk if overused.
~ When to Use Linuron Flo 450 SC.
- Pre-emergence or very early post When you want residual control In Carrots, Onions, Potatoes.
~ When NOT to Rely on It Alone.
- Heavy Grass Pressure.
- Large Established Weeds.
- Dry conditions (won’t activate well).
~ Simple Practical Program Example (Maize).
- Pre-plant: Glyphosate.
- Pre-emerge: Linuron + S-metolachlor.
- Post: Mesotrione.
~ Covers both Grass + Broadleaf + Resistance.
Caution:
Must be used strictly according to label directions.
