Description
Speed and Efficiency: Why Choose "Alfa-Diquat Forte"
In modern agricultural conditions, where harvest timelines depend heavily on weather patterns, using effective desiccants is a matter of profitability. "Alfa-Diquat Forte" from the Ukrainian manufacturer "Alfa Smart Agro" has solidified its reputation as a tool for quick and uniform crop preparation for threshing. It is a contact, non-selective herbicide that works instantly, rapidly drying out vegetation.
Technological Features and Application
The product is a water-soluble concentrate acting as a powerful desiccant. Its primary function is to halt plant life processes, which helps optimize logistics during the harvesting campaign:
- Winter Rapeseed: ensures uniform ripening, reducing seed losses during combining.
- Soybeans and Sunflowers: helps equalize seed moisture, which is critical for early or uniform ripening.
- Winter Wheat: effectively eliminates weeds that might interfere with harvesting while minimizing grain moisture.
The recommended application rate is between 1.0 and 2.0 L/ha per single treatment. It is crucial to consider the contact-based mode of action: achieving the best result requires high-quality coverage of the leaf surface. The product is classified as a Hazard Class 2 substance, requiring strict adherence to application safety regulations.
Market Position
"Alfa Smart Agro" is a leading Ukrainian producer of plant protection products, and this model serves as their core "workhorse." The market values this product for its predictable results and formulation quality. Unlike systemic herbicides, "Alfa-Diquat Forte" does not translocate within the plant, making it safe for subsequent crops in the rotation when used correctly within a single seasonal application.

By type of action
Depending on their ability to move through living tissues, herbicides are divided into contact and systemic. Contact herbicides cause local damage to plant tissue upon contact, which dies or gradually degrades. This action does not always completely destroy the plant; often, its... |

By application method
Based on the method of application, herbicides are divided into foliar, soil, and root herbicides. Foliar herbicides are applied to vegetative plants and act through their above-ground organs. The main method of application for such preparations is spraying using sprayers or airp... |

By Application Timing
By Application Timing
Herbicides are classified according to application timing into pre-emergent and post-emergent herbicides. Pre-emergent herbicides are mostly soil-applied or granular formulations applied before the emergence of crop plants. They are applied either pre-sowing (during pre-sowing cu... |
