Militia Metsulfuron 600WG Herbicide METSULFURON-MILITIA Axichem

Description

Militia Metsulfuron 600WG Herbicide

Active Ingredient: Metsulfuron-Methyl @ 600g/kg

Similar Or Comparable To Brush-Off (Dupont), Ally (Dupont), Associate (Nufarm), OzCrop Metsulfuron 600 WG Herbicide (Axichem) & Surefire Metsulfuron (PCT)

Militia Metsulfuron Methyl 600WG Herbicide is used for the control of certain broadleaf weeds in winter cereal crops and broadleaf weeds and brush species (woody weeds) in pastures, rights of way, commercial and industrial areas as per the Directions For Use table.

  • Militia Metsulfuron Methyl is a residual sulfonylurea compound, used as a selective pre and postemergence herbicide for broadleaf weeds and some annual grasses. It is a systemic compound with foliar and soil activity, and it works rapidly after it is taken up by the plant. Its mode of action is by inhibiting cell division in the shoots and roots of the plant, and it is biologically active at low use rates. It is very effective on weeds that include bulbs or tubers.
  • Militia Metsulfuron Methyl is commonly used in broadacre farming, woody weed & brush control and forestry situations. It is usually used together with other herbicides that control the weeds not susceptible to metsulfuron. Metsulfuron-methyl also controls susceptible weeds in cereals, where selectivity is due to rapid metabolism within the cereal plants.

Brush Control:

  • Militia Metsulfuron Methyl 600 controls more than 40 different species of brush, broadleaf and bulbous weeds. Mixed infestations of hard to control woody weeds, including Lantana, Gorse, Bracken, Tree-of-Heaven and Blackberry, are also easily controlled with one pass.
  • Militia Metsulfuron Methyl 600 also controls nuisance pasture weeds, including Doublegee, Erodium, Sorrel, Onion grass and Paterson’s Curse, & many more.
  • For a full table of weeds controlled, refer to the directions of use.

Broad Acre:

  • Militia Metsulfuron Methyl 600 is a highly selective herbicide for the control of many broadleaf weeds in winter cereals. It can be applied any time from the three-leaf stage of the crop – when the weeds are young and actively growing – to before booting.
  • Militia Metsulfuron Methyl 600 is compatible with a wide range of grass and broadleaf herbicides, making weed control even more cost-effective with the one-pass application.

    We sprayed some Singapore Daisy a week or more ago, and we’re yet to see much indication that the plants are dying. So we’re undecided.

      Hi Michael and thanks for the review. Militia Metsulfuron is part of the Sulfuron Urea group of chemicals. sulfuron urea herbicides are considered to be slow-acting. They can take up to 3 to 4 weeks to completely kill weeds. This is because they work by inhibiting an enzyme called acetolactate synthase (ALS), which is essential for plant growth. Once the ALS enzyme is inhibited, the weed will stop growing and eventually die. However, it may take some time for the weed to show signs of wilting or death.

Questions and answers from customers

    Will this kill a robinia pseudoacacia and what would be the ratio for mixing.

  1. Q Will this kill a robinia pseudoacacia and what would be the ratio for mixing.
    Asked by Pat Rankin on February 11, 2022 11:29 am
    Answered by the admin

    Metsulfuron-Methyl does not claim to control robinia pseudoacacia, so a complete kill is not guaranteed if used.  Metsulfuron-Methyl is registered to control some acacia species (less than 2.5mL) when mixed at 10gm per 100L water + wetting agent so that it may be worth a try 'off-label'.  Metsulfuron-Methy is usually combined with other woody weed control chemicals such as Grazon Extra to kill species such as robinia pseudoacacia.

  2. Does this product remain in the soil and inhibit the growth of other plants (eg grass) or does it break down? And we have fruit trees that are planted on mounds. We need to spray around the base of the mound to stop grass from growing up into the mound, and also to just touch or very lightly spray any weeds on the mound. We currently use glyphosate at 1%. Can we use Militia the same way without any risk to the health of the plants or people eating the fruit?

    Metsulfuron-Methyl remains active in the soil and has an average half-life of 30-days.  We would not recommend spraying metsulfuron-methyl in the root-zone area of your trees.  Metsulfuron-Methyl kills many broadleaf species of plants, including trees.  If the fruit trees absorb the metsulfuron, death or damage to the tree is likely.

Tips For Use

Restraints (brush Applications):

  • Do not spray if rainfall is expected within 4 hours. Do not store the prepared spray for more than 2 days.
  • Do not store tank mixes with other products.
  • Do not apply to pastures based on paspalum notatum or setaria spp. As their vegetative growth will be reduced.
  • Do not treat newly sown pastures as severe damage may occur.
  • Do not use on pasture seed crops.

Use of Surfactant/ Wetting Agent:

  • Militia Metsulfuron 600 wg herbicide alone – it is important that a penetrant, surfactant or wetting agent is always used with this product. If no specific wetting agent/ surfactant is recommended in the directions for use table use a non-ionic surfactant (100%) at 100ml/ 100l of final spray volume.
  • Militia Metsulfuron 600 WG Herbicide tank mixed with Glyphosate – Use a non-ionic surfactant when mixing with glyphosate herbicide. In some tank mix situations the use of an organosilicone penetrant (eg Pulse, Eurochem Penetrant, Probe or Saturate) is recommended. This recommendation must be strictly followed in order to achieve adequate weed control.
  • Gas gun applications – An organosilicone penetrant (eg Pulse, Eurochem Penetrant, Probe or Saturate) should be added at the rate of 10mL/ 5L or 200mL/100L of final spray volume.
  • Where a mineral spray oil is recommended use 1L/100L of final spray volume (ie 1% volume/volume). A non-ionic surfactant should still be used with this mixture.
  • Always read the instructions on the companion product label when tank mixing.

Compatibility:

  • This product is compatible with glyphosate formulations and commonly used pasture & broadacre herbicides such as MCPA Amine, MCPA Ester, 2,4-D Amine, Dicamba, Clopyralid (Lontrel), Fluroxypyr (Starane), and commonly used insecticides such as chlorpyrifos and omethoate.
  • Always refer to the companion product label for instructions/ restrictions.

Ecological and Environmental Effects:

  • Militia Metsulfuron-Methyl has a low toxicity to birds, aquatic organisms (including fish), bees and earthworms.
  • The breakdown of metsulfuron-methyl in soils is largely dependent on soil temperature, moisture content, and pH.(acidity / alkalinity) The chemical will degrade faster under acidic conditions, and in soils with higher moisture content and higher temperature. The chemical has a higher mobility potential in alkaline soils, due to its higher solubility.
  • Metsulfuron-methyl is stable to photolysis, but will break down in ultraviolet light. It is also stable to hydrolysis in neutral and alkaline conditions.
  • Metsulfuron-methyl is rapidly taken up by plants at the roots and on foliage. The chemical is translocated throughout the plant, but is not persistent. In tolerant plants, it is broken down to non-herbicidal products.

Safety Directions:

  • Harmful if swallowed.
  • Will irritate the eyes and skin.
  • Avoid contact with eyes and skin.
  • When opening the container and preparing spray, wear elbow-length PVC gloves and goggles.
  • If applying by hand wear cotton overalls, over normal clothing, buttoned to the neck and wrist and a washable hat and elbow length PVC gloves.
  • If product on skin, immediately wash area with soap and water.
  • If product in eyes, wash out immediately with water.
  • Wash hands after use. 
  • After each day’s use, wash gloves, goggles and contaminated clothing.

Protection of Livestock:

  • There is a nil withholding period for this product and stock may continue to graze where the product has been used in pasture situations.
  • It is recommended that stock are removed from the pasture for about 3 days to ensure product efficacy.
  • Certain plants such as bracken are naturally toxic to stock.
  • When toxic plants are present, it is recommended that grazing be delayed until complete browning of treated plants has occurred.

First Aid:

  • If poisoning occurs contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre. Phone Australia 131 126.
  • For further information, refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS).

Withholding Period

Withholding Period Details (WHP):
