Mode of Action

Horch provides a dual mode of action by being absorbed through the leaves, shoots, and roots of weeds. It inhibits the HPPD enzyme, which is essential for carotenoid pigment synthesis, and interferes with plastoquinone involved in the electron transport chain during photosynthesis. As a result, photosynthesis is disrupted, weeds are unable to produce food, and they gradually die due to starvation.
