United V Gold Bispyribac Sodium 10% SC Herbicide - Post-Emergent Weed Control for Paddy

United V Gold is a broad-spectrum, post-emergent herbicide containing Bispyribac Sodium 10% SC as its active ingredient. It is specially designed for rice (paddy) cultivation and effectively controls grasses, sedges, and broadleaf weeds in both the nursery and the main field. Being a selective herbicide, V Gold attacks only the damaging weeds and does not harm the rice crop when used as per label recommendation.

V Gold works through systemic action, meaning it is absorbed by the weed and moves inside the plant to disrupt its growth. This makes it a reliable choice for farmers dealing with mixed weed pressure in paddy fields. It offers a wide application window from the 2-5 leaf stage of weeds, giving farmers flexibility in timing. With a low dosage requirement of 80-120 ml per acre, it delivers consistent results while being cost-effective. The product is suitable for paddy nursery, transplanted paddy, and direct seeded paddy as per crop-wise guidance.

Key Benefits

• Broad-spectrum control of grasses, sedges, and broadleaf weeds in one application, reducing the need for multiple sprays.
• Selective action targets only harmful weeds, keeping the rice crop safe and healthy.
• Systemic action moves inside the weed plant to stop its growth, giving more complete control.
• Low dosage of 80-120 ml per acre makes it a cost-effective weed management option.
• Wide application window from 2-5 leaf stage of weeds offers flexibility in spray timing.
• Fast degradation in the plant system ensures safety to the rice crop.
• Compatible with other plant protection chemicals, including carbamates and organophosphate insecticides.
• Useful across paddy nursery, transplanted paddy, and direct seeded paddy systems.

How It Works

United V Gold works through systemic post-emergent action. When sprayed on the weed foliage, Bispyribac Sodium is absorbed by the weed leaves and translocates throughout the plant system. Once inside, it inhibits the acetolactate synthase (ALS) enzyme, which is essential for the production of certain amino acids needed for weed growth. This disruption stops the weed from growing and developing, leading to its death.

Because the herbicide moves inside the weed, it provides more complete control than contact-only products. The active ingredient degrades quickly in the rice plant system, which is why the crop remains safe even though the weeds are controlled. This selective behaviour is the key reason V Gold can be used confidently in paddy fields without fear of crop damage.

Technical Specifications

Recommended Dosage & Application

United V Gold is applied as a foliar spray. The recommended dosage is 80-120 ml per acre, mixed with water. For mixing, use 0.5 ml of V Gold per litre of water. The product is applied as a post-emergent spray after the weeds have emerged from the soil.

When to Use

United V Gold is a post-emergent herbicide, so it should be applied after the weeds have germinated and emerged from the soil. The ideal time is when weeds are at the 2-5 leaf stage, as this is when they are most vulnerable to the herbicide.

• For paddy nursery: apply 10-12 days after sowing.
• For transplanted paddy: apply within 10-14 days of transplanting, when most weeds have emerged and are at the 3-4 leaf stage.
• For direct seeded paddy: apply within 15-25 days of sowing.

Applying at the right stage ensures the weeds are young and actively growing, which gives the best control results.

Step by Step Usage Instructions

1. Drain the standing water from the rice field before application.
2. Measure the required dosage of 80-120 ml per acre.
3. Mix the measured quantity with an adequate amount of water. Use 0.5 ml of V Gold per litre of water.
4. Use a flat fan or flood jet nozzle for spraying.
5. Spray uniformly over the targeted weeds, ensuring the spray mist covers the foliar parts of the weeds.
6. Refill the field with water within 2-3 days of application.
7. Maintain standing water of 3-4 cm for a minimum of 10 days after application.

Compatibility

United V Gold is compatible with various chemical solutions and insecticides, including carbamates and organophosphate insecticides, without any adverse effect on rice. This allows farmers to combine weed control with other plant protection measures in a single spray schedule. Always follow label instructions when mixing products.

Precautions & Safety

• Check the label instructions and dosage properly before use.
• Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) such as gloves, mask, and protective clothing before handling the product.
• Dispose of the gloves after mixing the product.
• Keep the product in a dry and cool area, away from food and feed.
• Do not apply the herbicide directly on top of crops.
• Dispose of empty containers responsibly.
• United V Gold herbicide is for agricultural purposes only.
