During the Agrodinámica 2023 expo held in Paraguay from November 28 to December 1, BASF launched two new products for the Paraguayan market. Including the fungicide Keyra (cloflufenazole + fenpropion) and the herbicide Tirexor (triflufenazine).
The active ingredient of the fungicide Keyra, cloflufeniconazole, is a triazole compound. The unique isopropyl alcohol group in this active molecule allows it to rotate freely from the free state to the target binding state, inhibiting the transfer of Septoria, reducing bacterial mutations, and delaying the generation and development of resistance. The flexible and changeable spatial form makes cloflufenac always effective against a variety of resistant strains, making it an excellent resistance management tool. BASF said that this ingredient is 100 times more effective than traditional triazoles and can help farmers manage crops more effectively and achieve higher productivity.
Cloflufenazole is the first new isopropyl triazole fungicide developed and marketed by BASF. It can prevent and treat a variety of resistant strains and has the advantages of high efficiency and broad spectrum, good rapid effect, and long duration of effect. On July 12, 2012, BASF Agricultural Company applied for the compound patent CN103649057B of cloflufenazole in my country. Its invention name is: fungicidal substituted 2-[2-haloalkyl-4-phenoxyphenyl] -1-[1,2,4]-triazol-1-yl ethanol compound. In July 2032, its compound patents in China (CN103649057B) and Europe (EP2731935B1) expired.
Triflurazine, the active ingredient of the herbicide Tirexor, is a protoporphyrin oxidase (PPO) inhibitor that can control broadleaf weeds and has good drying, control and residual effects. The ingredient will be incorporated into the herbicide Brontirex, a new herbicide based on Safflux Benazil.
Triflurazine is a triazone herbicide developed by BASF. It is used to control weeds such as annual ryegrass. It also has resistance and inhibitory effects on major grass weeds in crop fields such as cereals, corn, and soybeans. On June 11, 2010, BASF applied for its compound core patent W02010/145992A1, and its invention name is: Herbicidal Benzoxazinones (herbicidal benzoxazinones). In June 2030, its compound patents in China (CN102459205A) and Europe (EP2443102A1) expired.
