LOWBIS Systemic Herbicide
LOWBIS Systemic Herbicide — The Smart Way
to Protect Your Maize Crop from Weeds
Introduction
Every Kharif and Zaid season, millions of Indian farmers battle one invisible
enemy that robs their harvest silently: weeds. Whether it is broad-leaf
varieties or grassy weeds, uncontrolled weed growth in maize fields can slash
yields by 30 to 60 percent. Enter LOWBIS — a post-emergence systemic herbicide
from Mrittika Harvest, formulated with Tembotrione 34.4% SC.
Tembotrione belongs to the triketone class of herbicides and
works by inhibiting the HPPD enzyme in weeds, which is essential for carotenoid
production. Without carotenoids, chlorophyll is destroyed and the plant
bleaches to death — while the maize crop remains unaffected.
What Makes LOWBIS Different?
Unlike pre-emergence herbicides that require precise soil moisture and timing,
LOWBIS is applied post-emergence — directly when weeds are actively growing.
This means it works on what is actually there in your field, not what might
have germinated. It controls both categories of problematic weeds — broad-leaf
weeds like Parthenium and grassy weeds like Echinochloa — with a single
application.
Which Crops and Season?
LOWBIS is ideal for maize cultivation in the Kharif (June–October) and Zaid
(March–June) seasons, when weed pressure is typically highest due to warm,
moist conditions. It is a selective herbicide, meaning it targets weeds without
damaging the crop stand.
How to Use
Apply LOWBIS between 15 to 25 days after sowing when weeds are at 2–4 leaf
stage for best results. Always follow label instructions for dosage and safety.
Avoid application during drought stress or extreme heat.
