Bango Herbicide (Quizalofop Ethyl 10% EC)
The Specialist Solution for Grassy Weeds in Soybean & Cotton
Bango Herbicide by Crystal Crop Protection is a highly selective, systemic post-emergence herbicide. Designed specifically for broadleaf crops, it surgically removes tough grassy weeds like Barnyard grass and Bermuda grass without harming your harvest.
Best For: Farmers seeking a cost-effective alternative to manual labor (saving 60-80% on costs) and requiring a solution that kills weeds from the roots up.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️Rainfast in 4 Hours: Rapid absorption means monsoon showers occurring just 4 hours after spraying will not wash away the chemical.
- ?️Complete Crop Safety: Advanced selectivity ensures it kills grass but remains perfectly safe for Soybean, Cotton, Groundnut, and Pulses.
- ⏳Systemic Root Kill: The active ingredient moves down to the roots and rhizomes, preventing stubborn weeds from regrowing.
- ?️All-Weather Performance: Formulated with superior emulsifiers to work effectively even in difficult environmental conditions.
- ?Targeted Grass Control: Excellent efficacy against Barnyard grass (*Sanwa*), Crabgrass, and Volunteer Maize/Sorghum.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Bango works by inhibiting lipid synthesis in weeds, effectively starving the plant of the materials needed to build new cells.
[Image of systemic herbicide translocation in plants]- Rapid Absorption: Upon spraying, the solvent system helps the active ingredient penetrate the waxy leaves of grassy weeds.
- Systemic Translocation: The herbicide travels through the plant's vascular system, moving to the growing tips and down to the roots.
- Enzyme Blockage: It blocks the ACCase enzyme. Within 10-21 days, the central whorl turns brown (a symptom called "Rotten Heart"), and the weed dies completely.
Note: Crop plants are naturally able to metabolize and detoxify this chemical, keeping them safe.

Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Soybean | 150 - 180 ml | 150 - 200 L | ~ 1 ml | Refer to Label |
| Cotton | 150 - 180 ml | 150 - 200 L | ~ 1 ml | Refer to Label |
| Groundnut | 150 - 180 ml | 150 - 200 L | ~ 1 ml | Refer to Label |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply when weeds are actively growing at the 2 to 4 leaf stage (usually 15-25 days after sowing). Efficacy drops if weeds are larger than 5 leaves.
- Mixing: Use clean water. Bango can be tank-mixed with Imazethapyr for broad-spectrum control, but never mix with copper fungicides.
- Coverage: Use Flat Fan or Flood Jet nozzles. Ensure high water volume (150-200 L/acre) so the spray penetrates vertical grass leaves.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Do not spray near fish ponds.
