How It Works: Mode of Action
Officer uses a dual-action mechanism to target the weed's enzyme system:
- Enzyme Blockade: Both active ingredients inhibit the ALS enzyme, which is essential for synthesizing amino acids (proteins) in weeds.
- Systemic Transport: The herbicide is absorbed through foliage and roots, traveling to the growing tips (meristems).
- Rapid Cessation: Weed growth stops immediately (within hours). Visual symptoms like yellowing appear in days, followed by complete death in 7-14 days.
Note: Rice plants naturally detoxify this chemistry, keeping the crop safe.
Target Crops & Pests
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|

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 (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (g / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rice (Paddy) | 60 g | 120 - 150 L | 0.4 - 0.5 g | 90 |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting. Note: Though the header mentions ml, this product is a solid granule measured in grams.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply at the 1-3 weed leaf stage (approx. 15-25 DAT). Do not apply on older weeds (>4 leaves).
- Water Management (Drain-Spray-Flood): Drain water from the field before spraying to expose weeds. Re-flood the field after 24-30 hours and maintain water for 5-7 days.
- Mixing (Stock Solution): Mix the 60g packet in a bucket of water (Stock Solution) first, then distribute into spray tanks to ensure uniform dosage.
- Coverage: Use Flat Fan or Flood Jet nozzles. Avoid Hollow Cone nozzles.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I mix Officer with insecticides?
No. Do not mix with Organophosphates (e.g., Chlorpyrifos, Malathion) as it can cause severe damage to the rice crop. Maintain a 7-10 day gap.
2. Does it control Motha (Sedges)?
Yes, the Pyrazosulfuron component is highly effective against sedges, including their underground tubers.
3. What happens if it rains after spraying?
Officer is rainfast within 6 hours. If it rains after 6 hours, re-spraying is usually not required.
4. Can I use it in cold weather?
Avoid application during severe cold spells or cold stress conditions, as the crop's ability to metabolize the herbicide slows down.
5. Is it safe for Direct Seeded Rice (DSR)?
Yes, it is registered and highly effective for DSR, provided it is applied at the correct stage (15-25 DAS).
