Used primarily as a selective herbicide in rice cultivation, effectively controlling grassy weeds and certain broadleaf weeds. It is especially effective against barnyard grass (Echinochloa spp.) and other stubborn grasses that compete with rice crops. Due to its selective action, it targets weeds without harming the rice plants when applied at recommended rates. Commonly applied in both pre- and post-emergence stages in paddy fields. Its use is favored in integrated weed management programs where resistance to other herbicides has developed.
