Target Weeds
Sulfometuron-methyl 750 WG controls a broad range of annual and perennial grass and broadleaf weeds in registered use situations. Key target species typically include spear thistle (Cirsium vulgare), Paterson's curse (Echium plantagineum), serrated tussock (Nassella trichotoma), African lovegrass (Eragrostis curvula), Chilean needle grass (Nassella neesiana), phalaris (Phalaris aquatica), and various other pasture and non-crop weeds. It also provides control or suppression of certain annual ryegrass and other problem grasses. Always refer to the current product label for the full, registered list of target weeds and the corresponding use situations, as registrations may vary.
Apparent Shatter Sulfometuron-methyl 750 WG is a selective sulfonylurea herbicide applied as a foliar or soil-active treatment. Mix the required amount of product in a small volume of clean water to form a slurry before adding to the spray tank, then top up to the required volume with agitation. Always check the product label for specific application rates as they vary depending on the target weed species, situation, and soil type.
This product is registered for use in a range of situations including non-crop areas, pastures, forestry, and industrial/rights-of-way situations. Apply using ground-based boom or knapsack equipment, ensuring thorough and even coverage of target weeds. For best results, apply to actively growing weeds that are not under moisture or temperature stress. Avoid application when weeds are dormant, waterlogged, or frost-affected.
Do not apply if rainfall is expected within 4 hours of application, as washoff will reduce effectiveness. Sulfometuron-methyl has soil-residual activity, which can persist and affect susceptible crops or pasture species sown into treated areas — observe all plant-back periods specified on the label before re-sowing. Take particular care near waterways, as this product is harmful to aquatic environments.
Always read the full product label and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before use. This is a Schedule 6 poison — use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including chemical-resistant gloves, safety glasses, and protective clothing when mixing and applying.
Always read the current registered product label before use. Dose rates and withholding periods on this page are provided as a guide only. The registered label supplied with the product is the legal document and takes precedence. If in doubt, contact TGRM on (07) 5482 1692 or the manufacturer directly.
Tips for Best Results
- Apply to actively growing weeds: Sulfometuron-methyl works best when weeds are small and actively growing. Applications to stressed, mature, or dormant weeds will give poor results, particularly for perennial species.
- Watch soil pH and type: Persistence and soil activity of sulfometuron-methyl increases in alkaline soils and can be extended in heavy-textured soils. Be cautious with plant-back intervals to avoid damage to susceptible pasture species or crops following treatment.
- Resistance management: Sulfonylurea herbicides (Group B / HRAC Group 2) are at high risk of resistance development. Avoid repeated use of the same mode of action — rotate with herbicides from different groups and integrate cultural control methods where possible.
- Avoid contamination of water sources: Do not apply directly to or near waterways, drains, or dams. Observe all buffer zones listed on the label to protect aquatic environments and non-target vegetation.
- Tank mixing and sprayer hygiene: If tank mixing with other herbicides, add products in the correct order as specified on the labels. After use, thoroughly clean spray equipment — sulfonylurea residues can damage sensitive crops if equipment is not properly decontaminated using an alkaline cleaning agent.
Always read the label and follow directions for use. The registered label is the legal document governing use of this product.
