Used as a selective herbicide to control grass weeds in broadleaf crops such as soybeans, cotton, and oilseed rape. It is effective in post-emergence applications, meaning it is applied after the weeds have started growing. Haloxyfop works by inhibiting acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase), an enzyme essential for fatty acid synthesis in grasses, leading to growth cessation and eventual plant death. Due to its selectivity, it minimizes damage to the broadleaf crops while effectively managing unwanted grasses. Commonly used in agriculture where mechanical weeding is impractical or labor-intensive.
