Features & Benefits

Mode of Action

Suparri is a post-emergence herbicide that works by binding to and inhibiting the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenyl-pyruvate-dioxygenase (4-HPPD) in target plants. This inhibits the production of caortenoids, which are essential for plants to produce energy. The inhibition of 4-HPPD also disturbs chloroplast synthesis and functions.
