metoxuron

Description:
Metoxuron, with the CAS number 19937-59-8, is a selective herbicide primarily used in agriculture for the control of certain broadleaf weeds and grasses. It belongs to the chemical class of ureas and functions by inhibiting photosynthesis in target plants. Metoxuron is characterized by its relatively low solubility in water, which influences its application and environmental behavior. It is typically applied pre-emergence or post-emergence, depending on the specific crop and weed species being targeted. The compound is known for its systemic action, allowing it to be absorbed by plant roots and foliage. Metoxuron has a moderate persistence in the soil, which can lead to potential carryover effects in subsequent planting seasons. Safety assessments indicate that, while it is effective against weeds, appropriate handling and application practices are essential to minimize risks to non-target organisms and the environment. As with many herbicides, resistance management strategies are important to maintain its efficacy over time.
