Many weeds which were once easily controlled with traditional herbicides, are now becoming resistant to those herbicides making them less effective and more costly for farmers to control. This problem has paved the way for next generation herbicides that provide better control and longer results.<\/p>\n<p>Among these new solutions, it is <a href=\"https:\/\/niir.org\/blog\/agrochemical-market-in-india\/\">Pyroxasulfone<\/a> which has become one of the most promising molecules in the agrochemical industry worldwide. With strong demand from farmers, increasing market in India and limited domestic manufacturing capacity, Pyroxasulfone is rapidly emerging as a good opportunity for entrepreneurs, agrochemical companies and investors.<\/p>\n<p>The market for this herbicide will achieve substantial growth during the next ten years because farmers will start using advanced weed management methods and the government will support domestic chemical manufacturing under the Make In India program.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_88 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-white ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/pyroxasulfone-market-in-india\/#Read_More_The_Complete_Technology_Book_on_Pesticides_Insecticides_Fungicides_and_Herbicides_Agrochemicals_with_Formulae_Manufacturing_Process_Machinery_Equipment_Details_4th_Revised_Edition\" >Read More: The Complete Technology Book on Pesticides, Insecticides, Fungicides and Herbicides (Agrochemicals) with Formulae, Manufacturing Process, Machinery &amp;

The isoxazoline chemical class contains a compound that prevents germinating weed seedlings from producing very long-chain fatty acids. Without these fatty acids weeds cannot form properly and don&#8217;t come out of the soil.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike many traditional herbicides that are applied after the weeds have grown, Pyroxasulfone is applied to the soil in the early stage of crop cultivation. Once applied it forms a barrier within the soil that prevents weed seeds from germinating successfully.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the major advantages of Pyroxasulfone are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Effective control of herbicide resistant weeds<\/li>\n<li>Long residual activity in the soil<\/li>\n<li>Reduced application rate as compared to older herbicides<\/li>\n<li>Broad-spectrum weed control<\/li>\n<li>Safe use of antiquated in major crops, e.g. wheat, maize, soybean<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>One of the most significant targets of Pyroxasulfone in India is Phalaris minor commonly known as Gulli Danda. This weed has developed resistance against several of the generally used herbicides and causes major yield losses in wheat growing areas like Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pyroxasulfone_Global_Market_Growth\"><\/span>Pyroxasulfone Global Market Growth<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The global agrochemical industry is seeing good growth in advanced herbicide molecules and Pyroxasulfone is one of the fastest growing segments.<\/p>\n<p>The global market of Pyroxasulfone is valued at approx USD 305 million in 2024.
