Abstract

Esprocarb[S-benzyl-N-ethyl-N-(1,2-dimethylpropyl)thiocarbamate], code name ICIA-2957 (formerly SC-2957) is a pre- and post-emergence herbicide giving effective control of Echinochloa crus-galli and annual weeds in paddy rice. Official field tests throughout Japan demonstrated that combinations with bensulfuron-methyl provided broad spectrum control of annual and perennial weeds with considerable flexibility of timing and crop tolerance in transplanted rice. New combinations of esprocarb with bensulfuron-methyl and third compounds are under development aimed at offering longer residual control of annual weeds, particularly Echinochloa crus-ga11i, in the cooler regions of Japan.
