Designed with advanced technology, it provides fast absorption, efficient translocation, and reliable control of annual and perennial weeds across cropped and non-cropped areas. Touchdown is widely used for land preparation, bund cleaning, water channel maintenance, and weed management in perennial plantations such as tea. Its non-residual nature ensures safe crop planting after use.
Product Specifications

Key Benefits
Fast plant absorption ensures quick and effective weed kill.
Controls a wide range of annual and perennial weeds.
Non-selective action suitable for both cropped and non-cropped areas.
No residual effect on subsequent crops after application.
Easily biodegradable and non-volatile.
Safe for beneficial insects when used as directed.
Suitable for land preparation and field sanitation operations.
Mode of Action
Touchdown inhibits the EPSPS (5-enolpyruvyl-shikimate-3-phosphate synthase) enzyme, which is essential for the synthesis of aromatic amino acids in plants. Blocking this pathway disrupts protein formation, causing a gradual shutdown of plant metabolism, leading to complete weed death. The herbicide translocates throughout the plant system, including roots, ensuring long-lasting control.
