What Makes TEMREX Special?
Tembotrione is the breakthrough maize herbicide that replaced old-school atrazine in modern Indian maize farming. It does 3 things that older herbicides cannot:
- Kills all 3 weed types in maize: Grasses + broadleaf + partial sedge control in one spray no separate spray needed
- Kills atrazine-resistant weeds: Years of atrazine use have created resistant weed strains. TEMREX uses a completely different mode of action (HPPD inhibition) and kills these escaped weeds
- Visible bleaching action: Weeds turn white/yellow within 3 to 5 days of spray farmers see the effect fast, full confidence in product working

Quick Dose Reference: Standard dose: 140 ml per acre • Knapsack: 35 – 40 ml per 15 L pump • Per hectare: 350 ml • Water: 400 – 500 L/ha • Apply at 15 – 25 DAS (maize 2 – 6 leaf stage) • Add non-ionic surfactant 0.5% for best results
How Does Tembotrione Work?
- Foliar absorption: Enters weeds through leaves within 1 to 2 hours of spray
- Systemic translocation: Moves to growing points and meristems through xylem and phloem
- Blocks HPPD enzyme: Inhibits 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase enzyme stops carotenoid biosynthesis
- Bleaching and death: Without carotenoids, chlorophyll is destroyed by sunlight weeds turn white in 3 to 5 days, full death in 10 to 14 days
Maize plants are naturally tolerant because they contain a detoxification enzyme (cytochrome P450) that breaks down tembotrione safely. That is why maize stays unaffected while weeds die.
Important Precautions & Compatibility:
- Spray only on maize do not use on paddy, wheat, soybean, vegetables, or any other crop.
- Maize stage matters: Spray between 2 – 6 leaf stage only. Late spray (after V6) can damage the crop.
- Do not spray on stressed crop drought, water-logging, nutrient deficiency, or pest damage can cause maize injury.
- Add a surfactant 0.5% non-ionic surfactant or crop oil concentrate (COC) gives 20 – 30% better weed kill.
- Drift caution: Avoid spray on windy days. Drift to nearby paddy, soybean, vegetables can cause severe damage.
- Tank-mix: Compatible with most insecticides. Do not tank-mix with organophosphate insecticides (Chlorpyrifos, Profenofos) risk of crop injury.
- Rain-fast within 4 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is Tembotrione 34.4% SC used for? TEMREX (Tembotrione 34.4% SC) is a selective post-emergent herbicide for maize/corn. It controls grasses (Echinochloa, Makra), broadleaf weeds (Bathua, Chaulai, Lehsua), and partial sedges in one spray. It also kills atrazine-resistant weeds.
Q. What is the dose of Tembotrione 34.4% SC per acre? The recommended dose is 140 ml per acre dissolved in 150 to 200 litres of water. Per hectare: 350 ml. For light weed pressure, 115 to 120 ml per acre is sufficient. Add 0.5% non-ionic surfactant for best results.
Q. How much TEMREX per 15 litre pump? Mix 35 to 40 ml of TEMREX per 15 litre knapsack pump. One acre needs approximately 4 to 5 pumps with full water. Shake well before measuring.
Q. When should I spray Tembotrione in maize? Spray at 15 to 25 days after sowing (DAS), when maize is at 2 to 6 leaf stage and weeds are at 2 to 4 leaf stage. Do not spray after maize crosses 6-leaf stage risk of crop injury increases.
Q. Is TEMREX safe for maize? Yes. Maize plants naturally detoxify Tembotrione through their internal cytochrome P450 enzyme. When applied at recommended dose (140 ml/acre) and stage (15 to 25 DAS, 2 to 6 leaf), it kills weeds without harming the maize crop.
Q. Tembotrione vs Atrazine which is better for maize? Atrazine is pre-emergent only sprayed before weed emergence. Tembotrione is post-emergent spray after seeing the weed problem. Tembotrione also kills atrazine-resistant weeds and has broader spectrum. Best practice: use Atrazine at sowing (pre-emergent) + Tembotrione at 15-25 DAS (post-emergent rescue).
Q. Tembotrione vs Topramezone what is the difference? Both are HPPD inhibitors and work similarly. Tembotrione has slightly better grass weed control, especially on Echinochloa. Topramezone has stronger broadleaf control. Both are safe on maize at recommended dose.
Q. TEMREX vs Laudis what is the difference? Both contain the same active ingredient: Tembotrione 34.4% SC. Laudis (Bayer) is the original brand. Krishikranti TEMREX offers the same molecule, same efficacy, same dose at better farmer value.
Q. Will TEMREX kill Bathua and Chaulai in maize? Yes. Tembotrione is highly effective against Chenopodium album (Bathua) and Amaranthus (Chaulai) two of the most common broadleaf weeds in Indian maize fields. Spray at 2 to 4 leaf stage of weeds for fastest kill.
Q. Can I tank-mix TEMREX with insecticides? Tembotrione is compatible with most insecticides for tank-mixing. Avoid mixing with organophosphate insecticides (Chlorpyrifos, Profenofos) risk of crop injury. Always do a small jar test first.
Q. How long does Tembotrione take to kill weeds? Visible bleaching (white/yellow leaves) starts in 3 to 5 days. Weed growth stops within 48 hours. Full weed death in 10 to 14 days. The field stays weed-free for 30 to 45 days.
Q. Is Tembotrione 34.4% SC CIB & RC approved in India? Yes. Tembotrione 34.4% SC is CIB & RC approved in India for use in maize crop for the control of grasses, broadleaf weeds, and partial sedge weeds.

Excellent fit and finish for the money. Just buy them.
Size: For BMW E46 2002-2005, Size: For BMW E46 2002-2005
Perfect fit. These grilles were better quality than the price would suggest. Easy to install, not brittle, and fit very snug. I’m not sure why there are so many negative reviews for these. I was fairly rough with the first one I installed and it didn’t crack. They look great. For a purist with excess money lying around, sure, go with genuine BMW. For a daily driver, you’d never know the difference aside from the black finish. Save the money spent on these over the OEM BMW and use it for something else.
Below need not be read unless you like long winded car resurrection stories...
The back story on the car for those who might wanna talk trash about its condition:
I bought this ‘01 330xi from a buddy who really beat the car up. I’ve had to replace the entire front end and am in the process of painting the car. I had to source a hood at my local pick ‘n pull due to low funds because I bought a new house recently. The hood I found at the parts yard was for an ‘04 e46 (post facelift). Hood fits just fine and the grilles are perfect. Don’t hesitate to buy!

e46 Sedan Black Kidney Grill: Good fit with a better attachment mechanism than stock!
Size: For BMW E46 1998-2001
These kidney grill replacements were for a e46 sedan (323i). They fit really well. They come with a different type of attachment mechanism than other types I've used in the past: These have 'posts' with a slight groove that you gently pry into place against the hood's mounting tabs. It's a solid holding mechanism - much better than the tab-types I've seen in the past. These do not wiggle around, and feel very solid once mounted. They DID require a bit of fitting with a dremel where the hood release latch is mounted to the hood. I had to cut back about half-an-inch of the inner 'shell' of the grill so it didn't interfere with the latch when you pull 'up' on it to release the hood. Based on having an e46 sedan for 16+ years, and having replaced the kidney grills several times, I'm quite fine with a little bit of modification for a good fit. I like these quite a bit better than other aftermarket types, and even the OEM BMW grills. The price is good, and mounting is solid. I liked them so much, I purchased a second set for my son's 323i right after putting them on one of my 323i's.
I plan on getting a set for a 325Ci one that car needs replacements.

They fit super snug and the quality is way better than price suggests.
Size: For BMW E46 2002-2005
They came in wrapped very well in foam and bubble wrap. They felt sturdy and the matte finish was satisfactory. They needed quite some pressure to snap in but when they did you could tell they weren’t going anywhere. The fitment is perfect and it looks great. If the stubs in the car where the grille clips attach are in tact you shouldn’t have a problem. Don’t be discouraged by the negative reviews.

Good value for the money
Size: For BMW E46 2002-2005
The matte is flawless and looks pristine & super easy to install. It does fit and it’s a good enough fit for a daily driver; however, it’s not a flawless fit. It’s off by maybe a 1/16th on the inside corners. It’s amazingly close despite the price point…would definitely recommend.

VERY poor materials and fit for E46, WILL FALL OUT
Size: For BMW E46 2002-2005, Size: For BMW E46 2002-2005
This part resembles the original, but not enough.
It is both too big AND too small, depending on the dimensions. It's too small from top to bottom, and too big from side to side. The locking tabs don't get close enough to lock (see pics) because there is too little clearance. Viewing from the front, the outer top corner is so far out (see pics) that the most important tab cannot properly lock in, causing the grill to drop out into my hand (or the ground, if I wasn't there to catch it). The grill also is missing some important curves to follow the shape it is supposed to fit into.
It also wasn't matte black as ordered. It looks like it was spray-painted, but I can't be sure. it is made of VERY brittle plastic, and the locking tabs are VERY small and flimsy. I wouldn't expect this part to survive a month or two before blowing away in a medium breeze.
One positive is that there is a relief cut to allow the hood safety catch handle to move fully upward without interfering with the plastic grille. That one positive has a lot of making up to do, and there's no way it can do it. Add to that that the seller included instructions for a car fifteen years newer than the model advertised on the item page, and we have a complete failure. But don't worry! I'm sure the seller will probably delete the listing and make a new one so they don't have to have this honest review attached to it.
