Documented Uses

• Used as selective pre-emergence herbicide mainly on sugarcane; Also used on ornamentals, turf, and other non-cropland; The only registered product is the sodium salt (Asulam-sodium CAS # 2302-17-2) soluble/concentrate liquid; [Reference #1] Available in the EU as aqueous solution of Asulam-sodium equivalent to 400 g/L Asulam; Designed for use on spinach with other food and feed crop, non-cropland, and grassland uses; [EFSA]
• Asulam (methyl sulfanilylcarbamate) is a herbicide used for weed control on sugarcane, Christmas tree plantations, ornamentals, turf, and noncropland uses. Asulam is formulated into and applied as the asulam sodium salt.
• Asulam, a cell-division inhibitor, is a selective, systemic herbicide, translocated, used for the control of annual and perennial grasses and broad-leaved weeds in a variety of crops, grassland, noncropland, and forestry.
• Asulam is produced by reaction of 4-aminobenzenesulfonamide, after protection of the amino group, with ethyl chloroformate in the presence of a base.
• Preparation: Belgium patent 622214 (1963 to May & Baker).
• Registration Notes: Canada: Asulox F for wild oat control in flaxseed. Western Europe: For preemergence annual weed control in spinach. Western Europe, Australia: For control of Dock (Rumex) in pastures, orchards; bracken in pastures, forestry and noncropland; wild oat and certain broadleaf weeds in oilseed poppy. Japan: Asilan for annual weed control in mulberry and zoysia turf.
