You deploy Propanil 480 g/L EC to deliver rapid post-emergence foliar burn-down on target grasses in rice programs where registered. The EC system emulsifies quickly across typical water qualities, spreads as a uniform film, and supports predictable contact action when scouting indicates threshold pressure. Operationally, you gain straightforward tank preparation, reliable spray behavior, and a documentation bundle (COA / SDS / TDS) that simplifies distributor onboarding and customer audits. Because the page is built around the 480 g/L anchor, search relevance and buyer recognition improve without prescribing rates or intervals.
Why it matters
-
Concentration clarity: the 480 g/L EC anchor strengthens search intent and procurement alignment.
-
Selective positioning: PSII (HRAC 5) with aryl acylamidase–based selectivity in rice.
-
Execution-ready: consistent emulsification and film support coverage discipline and repeatable outcomes.
Mode of Action & Selectivity (PSII, HRAC 5)
How it works
You use a PSII inhibitor (HRAC Group 5) that blocks electron transport at the D1 protein (QB site), shutting down photosynthesis and causing rapid leaf desiccation on susceptible weeds. The effect expresses as contact burn-down on foliage, so coverage quality and timing against young, actively growing weeds matter. Because Propanil 480 g/L EC is a post-emergence contact tool, spray film uniformity and environmental discipline determine the consistency of visible results across paddy blocks and service windows.
Why it is selective in rice
Rice plants possess aryl acylamidase that can rapidly hydrolyze propanil, supporting crop selectivity when you deploy the product label-guided. Selectivity is not unconditional; stewardship still requires coverage management, paddy water considerations, and monitoring thresholds to minimize non-target risk. Always operate where registered, respect local rules, and pair with IPM elements—scouting, sanitation, and exclusion—to keep reinfestation pressure low and program performance stable.
Target Weeds & Application Areas
Positioning
You position Propanil 480 g/L EC for rice paddies where registered, focusing on barnyardgrass (Echinochloa spp.) and other label-listed grasses and broadleaves. Because the tool is contact-forward, you time services to young, actively growing weeds and ensure uniform leaf coverage including standing and floating foliage within paddy architecture. All targets and claims are label-dependent; confirm local registrations, buffer requirements, and stewardship notes before deployment.
Examples (label-dependent)
-
Grasses: barnyardgrass and other local label-listed species in rice.
-
Broadleaf/sedges (if listed): follow the local label spectrum; use scouting to prioritize windows.
-
Programs: direct-seeded or transplanted rice, synchronized with water management to avoid dilution, drift, or deposition loss.
Application Principles
Preparation & mixing
You treat the tank as a controlled system: start with clean water in a label-compatible pH range, strain the first fill, and maintain continuous agitation to keep the EC emulsion stable. Follow the label mixing order and run a jar test when adding first-time partners or adjuvants. Verify nozzle and screen integrity to protect film formation across leaf surfaces. Because the product acts by contact, consistent coverage is the difference between partial scorch and uniform burn-down across the weed canopy.
When you spray
You schedule runs on scouting thresholds, prioritize young weeds, and coordinate with weather discipline to avoid strong wind, inversions, extreme heat, or imminent rainfall that compromise deposits. In paddies, align with water management to minimize off-target movement and dilution; plan routes to protect buffer zones and sensitive receptors. Operate away from pollinator activity around levees or adjacent flowering vegetation. All frequency, interval, and site decisions remain label-guided and where registered.
Verification & records
You verify performance with pre- and post-service scouting, tracking injury curves and live counts to tune timing windows and adjuvant choices. Keep traceable records—field IDs, lots, weather, water levels, nozzle sets, and outcomes—to meet audit expectations and support continuous improvement. Where resistance risk is material, rotate to non-Group-5 partners as allowed by the label and program guidance.
Formulation Stability & Packaging Options
Engineered for consistent emulsification
You are working with an EC built for fast emulsification, stable dispersion, and uniform film across typical water qualities encountered in rice programs. Quality control verifies HPLC assay, appearance/color, emulsion stability/persistent foam, and viscosity under heat/cold holds to validate transport and seasonal storage. Operationally, you agitate before and during use, keep strainers clean, and confirm screen/nozzle compatibility so deposition remains even across leaf angles and water interfaces—key to consistent burn-down from a contact herbicide.
Packaging matrix (export-ready)
You can activate OEM private label with multilingual artwork, barcoding/QR, and tamper-evident closures. Standard packs include 1 L / 5 L / 20 L with UN-rated cartons and palletization notes for export lanes. Every lot ships with COA / SDS / TDS and batch traceability to keep procurement, inbound QA, and customer audits straightforward and defensible.
Tank Mix Compatibility & Safety
Compatibility routine
Use clean water in a label-compatible pH range, follow the label mixing order, and perform a jar test for first-time partners or adjuvants. Maintain continuous agitation from tank charge to the last nozzle to prevent phase separation. Avoid strong acids/alkalis or unvetted solvent-heavy additives that may destabilize emulsions. Because paddies are hydrologically connected, plan containment and route sequencing to minimize cross-block carryover and to protect buffer zones.
Safety & stewardship
Observe PPE, REI/PHI, and local signage/notification rules. Implement aquatic safeguards to protect surface water and non-target habitats; coordinate with water management to limit off-target movement. All combinations and adjuvants are label-permitted only; operations remain where registered and label-guided at all times.
Regulatory Compliance & Environmental Behavior
You apply Propanil 480 g/L EC only where registered, following local labels that specify crops, targets, intervals, and any seasonal totals. Packaging carries GHS elements; export programs align with MRL, PHI, and REI requirements. From an environmental standpoint, this PSII contact herbicide demands attention to aquatic systems and non-target vegetation: schedule with weather discipline, maintain buffer zones, and log traceable records (fields, dates, lots, water management, outcomes) for stewardship reviews and regulatory inspections. Do not extrapolate claims beyond the label.

Field Use Scenarios
Direct-seeded rice — early barnyardgrass pressure
You detect young Echinochloa at threshold. A Propanil 480 g/L EC run aligns with water management to keep foliage exposed and film formation consistent. You avoid strong wind and imminent rain, verify coverage on standing leaves, and log pre/post counts. Visible burn-down restores competitive balance while records inform subsequent windows and any rotation to non-Group-5 partners if pressure trends upward.
Transplanted rice — mixed grassy flush
Transplant shock plus warm water triggers a grassy flush. You schedule a label-guided pass, maintain continuous agitation, and confirm even wetting across tillers and floating leaves. Program value comes from uniform contact and synchronized paddy water control to prevent dilution. Results are validated through scouting; resistance risk is managed via non-Group-5 partners in later windows as allowed.
Irrigation-fed paddies — mosaic stands
Uneven stands leave patches for barnyardgrass. You plan routes that respect buffer zones, coordinate with weather discipline, and use clean screens/nozzles to protect film uniformity. Post-service scouting guides whether sanitation and rotation are needed. All claims and targets remain label-dependent and where registered.
