Flumioxazin is a herbicide active ingredient that can work that is used as an agricultural or aquatic herbicide. It is systemic, meaning it can be applied to foliage or root and be absorbed and move throughout the target plant.

Flumioxazin is a yellow to slightly brown solid that is practically insoluble in water. Flumioxazin can work as both a pre-emergent or post-emergent herbicide and has been used to treat annual bluegrass and other warm-season turf grasses on golf courses.

Mode of Action

Flumioxazin works by inhibition of protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO), an enzyme that is important for the synthesis of chlorophyll . In other words, flumioxazin causes interference and halts the plants’ production of chlorophyll. Treated plants will respond quickly to treatment and rapidly decompose.

Flumioxazin is versatile in that it can be used as both a pre-emergent and post-emergent form of control on weeds and crops both on land and in aquatic sites.

Benefits Of Flumioxazin:-

Flumioxazin controls a broad-spectrum of invasive and problematic aquatic plants such as Eurasian watermilfoil and curlyleaf pondweed. It may also affect desirable native species, such as coontail, duckweeds, filamentous algae and native milfoil .

Direction for use


This information is approved as part of the product label. Read all instructions carefully in order to obtain safe and effective use of this product.  SUMIMAX is a protoporphyrin oxidase (FPO) inhibitor herbicide with contact activity. This contact activity is long lasting during the autumn period in moist soil, giving persistent control of a range of annual grasses and broad leaved weeds in winter wheat. SUMIMAX is active on germinating seedlings, inhibiting chlorophyll synthesis, leading to weed death and reducing crop competition. SUMIMAX remains in the surface layer of the soil and does not migrate to lower layers. Activity is reliant on weeds germinating in moist soil and coming into sufficient contact with the herbicide.
