Microcapsule herbicides becoming popular in China

 

Therefore, a microcapsule formulation is a very environment-friendly formulation versus other formulations.

 

Microcapsules are mainly used for controlling soil insects, fruit tree cotton aphids and afforestation services. As per China Pesticide Registration Watch, there have been 119 registered insecticide CS products, ingredients of which mostly include high chloride and Dursban, as against soil insects.

 

At present, manufacturers have started to study the application of microcapsules in herbicides. So far there are 21 registered herbicide CS products, ingredients of which mostly include pendimethalin, acetochlor, clomazone, MCPA-isooctyl, S-metolachlor, alachlor, butachlor and tri-allate, which are outlined as below:
