Commercial pack specifications and acreage coverage
- Technical content: Bispyribac-sodium 10% SC (broad-spectrum post-emergence selective herbicide).
- Acreage coverage: The 1-litre pack covers approximately 10 acres of rice crop at the standard label recommendation of 100 ml per acre.
- Economies of scale: Purchasing the 1-litre commercial pack significantly reduces the per-acre herbicide cost compared to smaller 100 ml bottles.
- Target crop: Suitable for both puddled transplanted rice and direct-seeded rice (DSR) systems.
Price determinants, dealer sourcing, and authenticity
- Wholesale pricing factors: Commercial pack prices vary based on bulk quantity purchases, distributor credit terms, and regional freight.
- FPO bulk discounts: Farmer Producer Organizations and custom hiring groups frequently secure volume discounts directly through authorized PI Industries distributors.
- Anti-counterfeit verification: Check the proprietary induction seal, bottle barcode, batch manufacturing details, and holographic strip on the container.
- Tax invoice: Always secure a formal GST invoice to ensure product warranty and chemical authenticity.
Field mixing calibration, application, and storage
- Field calibration: Measure exactly 100 ml per acre using a calibrated measuring cylinder, diluting into 120 to 150 litres of clean water.
- Nozzle configuration: Use a multi-nozzle boom or single knapsack wand fitted with a flat fan or floodjet nozzle for uniform coverage.
- Water management: Drain field water prior to spraying, and re-flood the field 48 hours post-application to maintain weed suppression.
- Bulk storage: Store remaining chemical in the tightly sealed original bottle in a secure, cool, dry room away from animal feed and children.
