Praxys: High performance weed control in turf management

Praxys combines the power of three active ingredients with two modes of action, providing an unparalleled level of efficacy in weed management.

Developed through an extensive trials programme, Praxys not only ensures the eradication of a wide range of difficult to control weeds but does so with an exceptionally low application rate.

This not only minimises the environmental impact of active ingredients but also positions Praxys as a steward of sustainable turf management practices.

Key ingredients for maximum efficacy

Praxys’s formulation incorporates:

• Florasulam: A versatile component absorbed by both the leaves and roots of weeds. Florasulam (an ALS inhibiter) disrupts plant enzyme activity, halting cell division and leading to chlorosis and necrosis. Remarkably effective in cooler temperatures, it extends Praxys’s application window beyond the capabilities of other herbicides.
• Fluroxypyr: Known for its robust action, Fluroxypyr (an auxin type) targets the foliar parts of weeds, deregulating growth and causing deformities. Its efficiency in warmer climates ensures that Praxys remains effective throughout the growing season, without the risk of scorching or evaporative losses.
• Clopyralid: Distinguished as the most effective translocated herbicide available, Clopyralid (also an auxin type) guarantees a thorough kill from root to tip, leaving no chance for weeds to re-establish. It enhances the performance of Florasulam and Fluroxypyr, making Praxys even more potent.

Product specifications

Praxys is available in concentrations of 144g/litre fluroxypyr-meptyl, 80g/litre clopyralid, and 2.5g/litre florasulam, ensuring a balanced attack against weeds.

Praxys should be applied when weeds are actively growing (not during periods of stress), this would normally be from March to October in the UK and Ireland.

Benefits

The advantages of using Praxys in turf management are clear:

• A powerful blend of Florasulam, Fluroxypyr, and Clopyralid ensures a comprehensive kill.
• Ensures rapid absorption and is rainfast within one hour.
• Boasts low dosage rates, reducing costs related to active ingredient use, packaging waste, and water volume.

In conclusion, Praxys is a key tool for efficient and reliable weed control.

Its formulation meets the important needs of today’s turf professionals, offering a practical, sustainable way to control weeds.
