  • The water dispersible granule flupoxam showed over 95% of weeding effect on the annual weeds of Poaceae such as Poa annua L., Digitaria ciliaris (Rets.) Koel and broad-leaf weeds. Efficacy of treatment had been lasted over 120 days in the $2kg\;ha^{-1}$ when it was treated from March to April while lasted over 180 days when it was treated from September to October. Because the flupoxam has a high soil absorptivity, a perfected herbicide layer is formed. This results in perfect weeding effect regardless of the presence or absence of thatch. Because the flupoxam has a different mechanism of action from the conventional herbicides such as dinitroanilines, pyridines, and carbamates, it is very effective with the alternative spray. Phytotoxicity symptoms was not observed and/or produced antocyan in new leaves in the landscape trees around the lawngrass by flupoxam treatment.
