Lottery by Coromandel is a new-generation, broad-spectrum herbicide designed specifically for Maize (Corn). It tackles the toughest weeds that steal nutrients from your crop. By combining the power of Tembotrione with a special "Safener" technology, Lottery kills weeds fast while keeping your maize crop completely safe and green. It is the perfect replacement for labor-intensive manual weeding.

How It Works: Mode of Action
- Uptake & Blockade: The herbicide is absorbed by the leaves and blocks an enzyme called HPPD. This enzyme is needed to create protective pigments (Carotenoids) in the plant.
- Sunlight Activation: Without these protective pigments, the weed's chlorophyll is exposed to direct sunlight and is destroyed by high-energy oxygen radicals.
- Bleaching & Death: This destruction turns the weed tissues pure white (bleaching effect). The weed can no longer produce food (photosynthesis) and dies completely.
*Note: The added Safener helps the maize plant break down the chemical instantly, so your crop stays green while weeds turn white.

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) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Maize | 115 ml | 200 Liters | ~0.6 ml | 60 Days |
*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 in the 3 to 4 leaf stage (typically 15-25 days after sowing maize).
- Mixing: Always use the recommended Surfactant (Adjuvant) with Lottery to ensure the chemical sticks to waxy weeds.
- Coverage: Use 200 Liters of water per acre. Proper moisture in the soil is required for best results.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does Lottery control purple nutsedge (Motha)?
It suppresses shoot growth and turns the sedge white, stopping its competition with the crop, but it may not completely kill the underground tubers in one go.
2. Can I use Lottery on Sweet Corn or Popcorn?
Yes, thanks to the safener technology, it is generally safe for Field Corn, Sweet Corn, and Seed Corn.
3. Can I mix insecticides with Lottery?
Avoid mixing with Organophosphate insecticides (like Chlorpyrifos) as it may harm the crop. Maintain a 7-day gap between herbicide and insecticide sprays.
4. What if it rains after spraying?
Lottery is rainfast within 1 hour. If it rains after 60 minutes of spraying, re-spraying is usually not required.
5. Will it affect my next crop (Wheat/Mustard)?
No, Tembotrione degrades well in the soil. It leaves no harmful residues for subsequent rotation crops like wheat or chickpea.
