Main Functions
This formulation is mainly positioned for corn herbicide programs that need post-emergence support against selected broadleaf weeds and selected grass weeds.
It is not positioned as a universal corn herbicide or a full-season weed-control guarantee.
Main functions include:
- Supports post-emergence weed management in corn
- Helps manage selected broadleaf weeds where locally approved
- Supports selected grass weed directions according to approved label claims
- Fits corn fields where mixed weed pressure is present after crop emergence
- Provides a Group 27 HPPD herbicide direction for registration review
- Helps local partners build a differentiated corn herbicide portfolio
- Supports weed-management programs during active corn growth
Final target claims and use directions must follow local registration and approved label requirements.
Mode of Action
Tembotrione 8% OD is a single-active Group 27 HPPD-inhibiting herbicide.
It should be positioned clearly as a post-emergence corn herbicide for registered broadleaf and grass weed-management programs.
Group 27 HPPD Inhibition
Tembotrione belongs to HRAC Group 27.
It works by inhibiting 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase, also known as HPPD.
HPPD inhibition affects carotenoid formation in susceptible weeds. Without normal carotenoid protection, plant tissues become sensitive to light-related damage.
Carotenoid Disruption and Bleaching Symptoms
Susceptible weeds may show yellowing, whitening, bleaching, and then necrosis after exposure.
This bleaching symptom pattern is an important field-visible feature of Group 27 HPPD herbicides.
Visible response depends on weed species, weed stage, spray coverage, crop condition, weather, application timing, and approved local use directions.
Post-Emergence Corn Weed Activity
Tembotrione 8% OD should be positioned as a post-emergence corn herbicide.
It fits registered programs where target weeds are young and actively growing after crop emergence.
It should not be positioned as a general pre-emergence herbicide across many crops.
Resistance Boundary
Tembotrione 8% OD is a single Group 27 herbicide.
It does not provide multiple resistance-management modes. Repeated exclusive use of Group 27 herbicides may increase resistance pressure, especially where HPPD-resistant weed pressure is already a concern.
Target Weed Directions
Tembotrione 8% OD is positioned for selected corn-field weed directions where approved by local registration.
| Target Direction | Practical Positioning |
|---|---|
| Selected broadleaf weeds | Core post-emergence corn weed direction where locally approved |
| Waterhemp-type weeds | Review direction according to approved local label |
| Pigweed species | Important broadleaf weed review direction |
| Ragweed-type weeds | Broadleaf direction where locally approved |
| Lambsquarters | Broadleaf weed direction according to approved label |
| Velvetleaf | Review direction in corn programs |
| Nightshade-type weeds | Broadleaf direction where locally approved |
| Selected grass weeds | Supporting grass weed direction according to label claims |
| Barnyardgrass-type weeds | Grass weed review direction where locally approved |
| Foxtail species | Grass weed direction according to approved label |
| Crabgrass / goosegrass | Review direction based on local registration |
| Mixed corn weed pressure | Product-fit scenario when broadleaf and grass weeds are both present |
This product should not be described as controlling all broadleaf weeds, all grass weeds, or all corn weeds.
Actual target spectrum must follow approved local label claims.
Suitable Crops and Application Areas
Corn / Maize
Tembotrione 8% OD is mainly positioned for corn / maize weed-management programs where local registration supports post-emergence HPPD herbicide use.
It fits corn programs where selected broadleaf weeds and selected grass weeds need post-emergence management according to the approved local label.
Field Corn and Silage Corn
Field corn and silage corn are important review directions where selected broadleaf and grass weed pressure needs post-emergence support.
Final crop scope, crop stage, target weed claims, and use restrictions must follow local registration.
Seed Corn, Sweet Corn, and Popcorn Review
Seed corn, sweet corn, and popcorn should only be included where the approved local label clearly supports these crop directions.
Crop safety, variety sensitivity, crop stage, and local label restrictions must be reviewed carefully before product positioning.
Local Market Application Review
Before registration planning or import cooperation, local partners should review:
- Corn type

OD Formulation Features
OD means oil dispersion. Tembotrione 8% OD is an oil-based formulation system designed for dilution before post-emergence corn herbicide application according to approved local label directions.
The technical value of OD formulation is mainly reflected in dispersion stability, dilution behavior, physical stability, and post-emergence spray handling.
Key formulation features include:
- Oil dispersion formulation
- Oil-based system
- Dispersion stability
- Stable dilution behavior
- Physical stability during storage
- Active ingredient content control
- Batch consistency
- Flowability during handling
- Leaf contact support in post-emergence use
- Leakage prevention
- Temperature control
For registration review, import cooperation, and distribution planning, OD formulation quality should be evaluated through product specification, sample support, formulation information, and batch quality confirmation.
Product Advantages
Single-Active Group 27 Direction
Tembotrione 8% OD provides a clear single-active Group 27 HPPD herbicide direction for registered corn weed-management programs.
This helps local partners add a dedicated HPPD herbicide option to corn herbicide portfolios.
Post-Emergence Corn Fit
The product is positioned for post-emergence use in corn where target weeds are young and actively growing according to approved local label directions.
It should not be positioned as a general all-crop herbicide.
Broadleaf and Grass Weed Support
Tembotrione 8% OD supports selected broadleaf weeds and selected grass weeds in corn where locally approved.
Final target claims must follow the approved local label.
OD Liquid Formulation

This is important for professional corn herbicide channels that need stable formulation quality and practical field use.
Clear Differentiation from Safener Formulations
Tembotrione 8% OD is a single-active product.
It should be clearly separated from Tembotrione + Isoxadifen-ethyl formulations that include a safener.
SunAgro Branded Supply Direction
SunAgro Science supplies this SunAgro branded corn herbicide for long-term cooperation with qualified local importers, distributors, registration companies, agricultural retailers, and crop protection channels.
Difference Between Tembotrione 8% OD and Isoxadifen-ethyl 200 g/L + Tembotrione 400 g/L SC
Tembotrione 8% OD and Isoxadifen-ethyl 200 g/L + Tembotrione 400 g/L SC both include Tembotrione, but their product structures are different.
| Item | Tembotrione 8% OD | Isoxadifen-ethyl 200 g/L + Tembotrione 400 g/L SC |
|---|---|---|
| Product Structure | Single-active herbicide | Herbicidal active + safener |
| Herbicidal Active | Tembotrione | Tembotrione |
| Safener | Not included | Isoxadifen-ethyl included |

| Main Crop Direction | Corn / maize | Corn / maize where locally approved |
| Page Focus | Tembotrione single-active HPPD herbicide | Mesotrione single-active HPPD herbicide |
| Resistance Note | Same Group 27 logic | Same Group 27 logic |
Tembotrione and Mesotrione should not be positioned as different resistance-management groups if both are used as Group 27 HPPD herbicides.
The difference should be explained through active ingredient, formulation, crop scope, weed spectrum, registration status, and local portfolio planning.
Difference Between Tembotrione 8% OD and Tembotrione + Isoxadifen-ethyl SC
Tembotrione 8% OD should also be separated from Tembotrione products that include a safener.
| Item | Tembotrione 8% OD | Tembotrione + Isoxadifen-ethyl SC |
|---|---|---|
| Safener Position | No safener in product name | Safener included |
| Product Identity | Single-active HPPD herbicide | HPPD herbicide with safener support |
| Formulation Identity | Oil dispersion | Suspension concentrate |
| Registration Review | Simpler single-active review direction | Herbicide + safener review direction |
| Crop Selectivity Message | Based on approved label directions | Safener-backed selectivity where approved |
This distinction helps buyers understand whether they are reviewing a single-active Tembotrione herbicide or a safener-backed Tembotrione formulation.
Difference Between Tembotrione 8% OD and Nicosulfuron + Dicamba + Mesotrione WG
Tembotrione 8% OD and Nicosulfuron + Dicamba + Mesotrione WG belong to different corn herbicide product structures.
| Item | Tembotrione 8% OD | Nicosulfuron + Dicamba + Mesotrione WG |
|---|---|---|
| Active Structure | Single-active product | Three-active formulation |
| HRAC Direction | Group 27 | Group 2 + Group 4 + Group 27 |
| Formulation | OD, oil dispersion | WG, water-dispersible granule |
| Main Position | Single-active corn HPPD direction | Mixed-mode post-emergence maize herbicide |
| Product Role | HPPD portfolio option | Broader mixed weed program direction |
Tembotrione 8% OD should remain positioned as a single-active HPPD herbicide.
Nicosulfuron + Dicamba + Mesotrione WG should remain positioned as a multi-active maize herbicide with Group 2 + Group 4 + Group 27 structure.
Difference Between Tembotrione 8% OD and S-Metolachlor + Mesotrione + Terbuthylazine SE
Tembotrione 8% OD and S-Metolachlor + Mesotrione + Terbuthylazine SE serve different corn weed-management directions.
| Item | Tembotrione 8% OD | S-Metolachlor + Mesotrione + Terbuthylazine SE |
|---|---|---|
| Active Structure | Single-active Tembotrione | Three-active formulation |
| HRAC Direction | Group 27 | Group 15 + Group 27 + Group 5 |
| Main Use Direction | Post-emergence corn weed-management | Pre-emergence / early post-emergence residual corn program |
| Formulation | OD, oil dispersion | SE, suspo-emulsion |
| Page Focus | HPPD post-emergence activity | Residual multi-active corn weed program |
This comparison helps separate Tembotrione 8% OD from residual corn herbicide programs.
Tembotrione 8% OD should focus on post-emergence HPPD activity, while S-Metolachlor + Mesotrione + Terbuthylazine SE should focus on residual multi-active corn weed management.
