Mode of Action

GROUP J HERBICIDE

Ethofumesate, the active ingredient in MATRIX® Herbicide is absorbed by young shoots and roots of susceptible weed species. The post emergence activity of ethofumesate is limited to very young weeds at lower use rates as ethofumesate is not absorbed by leaves after the plant has produced a mature cuticle. Ethofumesate is translocated within the plant following coleoptile or root absorption but is not translocated out of treated leaves. Ethofumesate is believed to inhibit photosynthesis and respiration within the susceptible weed.
