Which chemical group does Varisto Herbicide belong to?

Varisto Herbicide belongs to Group 2 and Group 6 due to its specific mode of action and the target sites it affects in plants. Group 2 herbicides typically inhibit the synthesis of amino acids, primarily the branched-chain amino acids, which disrupts protein production essential for plant growth. Group 6 herbicides, on the other hand, interfere with the photosynthesis process by targeting the photosystem II pathway.

By belonging to both groups, Varisto Herbicide provides a broader spectrum of control on various weed species by attacking different physiological processes within the plant. This dual-action can enhance its effectiveness and help in managing herbicide resistance in weed populations, making it a valuable tool in agricultural practices.
