Torry Herbicide (Tembotrione 34.4% SC) | Advanced Maize Weed Control
The "Third Wave" of herbicidal technology for complete protection against grasses, broadleaves, and sedges.
Torry by Insecticides (India) Limited is a specialized post-emergence herbicide designed exclusively for Maize (Corn). It tackles the toughest weeds that manual labor and older chemicals miss.
Torry (Tembotrione 34.4% w/w SC) works by stopping weed growth immediately and turning them white (bleaching). It includes a special "Safener" that ensures your maize crop stays healthy while weeds are destroyed. It is the perfect solution for modern farmers looking to replace expensive manual weeding with a cost-effective spray.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️Visible "Bleaching" Action:
Weeds stop growing immediately and turn paper-white within 3 to 5 days, giving you visual proof that it works. - ?️Maximum Crop Safety:
Contains Isoxadifen-ethyl (Safener) which acts as a shield, protecting the maize plant while killing the weeds. - ⏳Flexible Application Window:
Can be applied post-emergence, typically 15 to 20 days after sowing, offering more flexibility than pre-emergence sprays. - ?️Rainfast in 1 Hour:
Rapid absorption means the product is effective even if it rains just one hour after spraying. - ?Controls "Motha" (Sedges):
Unlike older herbicides, Torry suppresses tough sedges like Cyperus rotundus along with grasses and broadleaf weeds.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Torry uses advanced HPPD-inhibitor technology. It targets the weed's ability to protect its own chlorophyll from sunlight.
- Absorption: The herbicide is quickly absorbed by the leaves, stems, and roots of the weeds.
- Pigment Destruction: It blocks the HPPD enzyme, preventing the weed from making protective pigments (carotenoids).
- Bleaching & Death: Without protection, sunlight destroys the weed's chlorophyll. The weed turns white (bleached) and dies completely within 10-15 days.

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 Litres | 0.58 ml | As per Label |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Spray when weeds are at the 2 to 4 leaf stage (usually 15-20 days after sowing).
- Mixing: Always mix Torry with the recommended surfactant (sticking agent) to ensure it penetrates the waxy leaves of grass.
- Coverage: Use 200 Liters of water per acre. Good coverage is essential for controlling tough weeds.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use.
