Fusilade Forte 5 l

Home use: 50 ml/10 l water

Very selective herbicide, kills monocotyledonous weeds in dicotyledonous crops.

Active ingredient:
150 g/l fluazifop-P-butyl

For use in:
For the weed control of sugar beet, sunflower, potato, soybean, dry bean, dry pea, rape, lucerne, melon, vegetables (pepper, tomato cabbage, onion, red onion), poppy, orchards (apple and stone fruit) and vineyards, in forestry against helmet cane.

Recommended dose:
Against cereal weeds: 0,4-0,6 l/ha, against seed-borne grasses 0,8-1,2 l/ha, perennial weeds (rhizomatous pine-weeds, tarack wheat, reeds, stargrass, hyssop) 1,5-2,8 l/ha

Spectrum of action:
Effective against weed species of the grass family, not harmful to other weed species. Herein lies its selectivity; it can be used in a very wide range of crops. It is effective against cock's-foot grass species, moor-grass, shell oats, pyropha foxtail, rhizome, wild millet, cereal weeds. Among the perennial grass weed species, it is highly effective in killing pine needles, tarack wheat, stargrass, reed canarygrass, horsetail. Not effective against bulbous annual weeds. It acts by damaging the stem meristem (dividing) tissue.

Recommended technology for plant protection:
The product should be applied when grass weeds emerging from seed are at 3-5 leaf stage and perennials at 10-20 cm development.Spraying should be carried out at 150-300 l/ha at relatively low spray rates to ensure the smallest possible droplet size. The choice of treatment time before the dark phase (night) improves the effectiveness of weed control and reduces the possibility of resprouting perennial weed species. It is advisable to spray perennial weed species before flowering in the intensive growth phase.

Notes, recommendations for use:

Apply at a rate of 0.8-1.2 l/ha to seed-sprouting monocotyledonous weeds at 3-5 leaf phenology.
In perennial annuals, 1,8-2,0 l/ha for rhizomatous pine nutsedge and 2,5 l/ha for tarack wheat, when the weed is in intensive growth at 20-30 cm maturity.
In autumn cabbage at a dose of 0,4-0,6 l/ha until 3-5 cm of cereal weed emergence.
For spot treatment only against stargrass, helmet reed canarygrass and reed canarygrass at 2,6-2,8 l/ha.
For spraying use 250-300 l/ha water volume, for aerial application in forestry the recommended spray volume is 50-70 l/ha.
Aerial application: only in forestry, only in areas with natural regeneration, at least 10 ha in size, difficult access, poor terrain, in case ground application is not feasible. In the case of helicopter application, the addition of a drip additive to the spray is obligatory.
