Best Agrolife Ltd (BAL), the leading manufacturer of crop solutions in India, has received the registration of Fomesafen Technical 95% w/w.

The Central Insecticides Board and Registration Committee (CIBRC) has granted the registration for under section 9 (3) indigenous manufacturing of this crucial technical to one of the wholly owned subsidiaries of BAL, Best Crop Science Pvt Ltd.

Fomesafen, a selective herbicide offers a versatile solution for farmers across India. With its unique formulation, Fomesafen provides control of broadleaf weeds, grasses, and sedges in soybeans. Its applications can be pre-plant, pre-emergence, or post-emergence, making it highly adaptable to different farming practices.

The selective nature of Fomesafen ensures effective weed control while minimizing harm to desirable crops. Absorbed by leaves and roots, Fomesafen exhibits limited translocation in the phloem, ensuring targeted effectiveness. This characteristic makes it an ideal choice for farmers looking to optimize crop health and productivity while maintaining sustainability.

This registration highlights BAL's commitment to agricultural innovation and its dedication to equipping farmers with effective tools to improve their crop yields and resilience. Alongside recently securing a patent for its Tricolor innovation and registration for indigenous manufacturing of Warden Extra, BAL has introduced Shot Down, a patented herbicidal composition. This ground-breaking formulation, containing Haloxyfop, Imazethapyr, and Butylated Hydroxy, is poised to revolutionize soybean cultivation.

The company was in the news recently for proposing the acquisition of Sudarshan Farm Chemicals India Pvt Ltd. (SFCL) an established name in the field of agrochemicals and innovative process chemistries having an IP portfolio of 10 patents (applied).
