Fundatis® Herbicide powered by Isoflex® active

The mode of action is totally new to the cereal herbicide market. It acts by inhibiting the ability of susceptible weeds to produce carotenoids, molecules which are vital to photosynthesis. Inhibition of carotenoids leads to the characteristic bleaching and colour-change symptoms observed in weeds treated with Fundatis® Herbicide.

Fundatis® Herbicide has activity on a broad range of weeds, including activity against key grassweeds such as blackgrass, ryegrass and annual meadow grass. It also provides control of a wide range of broadleaf weeds.

Trials have shown Fundatis® Herbicide to be safe in cereals, oilseed rape, potatoes, sugar beet, maize, and pulse crops.

The first product utilising Fundatis® Herbicide to be brought to market will be for use in Winter Wheat & Winter Barley.

Once FMC achieves initial product registration, Fundatis® Herbicide will first be approved for autumn applications to Winter Wheat and Winter Barley

Fundatis® Herbicide mode of action is new to the UK Cereal market and will bring a novel tool to farmers armouries. Use of new chemistry, alongside existing products, can contribute to an effective resistance management strategy.

Yes, following extensive field trials and testing we are confident in Fundatis® Herbicide ability to be very flexible and easily tank mixed or sequenced with other approved products, a key component of integrated weed management.
