Chennai-based Tropical Agrosystem (India) Pvt. Ltd, one of the leading players in the crop protection and plant nutrition industry, has launched a patented herbicide, Tag Proxy, to combat persistent weed problems.

It sad weed infestations remain a serious challenge in the agriculture sector. A joint study by the Federation of Seed Industry of India (FSII) and the Directorate of Weed Research pegged weed-related losses in kharif cros at 25–26 per cent and in rabi crops at 18–25 per cent.The annual productivity loss is estimated over ₹92,000 crore.
V.K. Jhaver, Founder, Tropical Agro, said: “With Tag Proxy, we are filling a vital gap in India’s weed management landscape. This product not only enhances field efficiency but also addresses the growing issue of labour unavailability.”
Tag Proxy features a proprietary blend of Paraquat Dichloride 22.4 per cent W/W and Oxyfluorfen 1.99 per cent W/W EW, designed for fast action and consistent, season-long results. The launch follows the successful rollout of Tag Stem Lee — India’s first granular insecticide to protect paddy crops from stem borer and leaf folder infestations.
The statement said Tag Proxy has been approved by the Central Insecticides Board & Registration Committee (CIBRC), and will be available from May 21, 2025.
