Amstor

Metamitron as a Key to Selective Weed Control

"Amstor" is a systemic herbicide built upon metamitron, a triazine-based active ingredient recognized as a standard in beet crop protection. The technical advantage of this formulation lies in its high selectivity: it effectively inhibits photosynthesis in annual broad-leaved weeds while allowing the fodder beet crop to thrive without phytotoxic stress. The suspension concentrate ensures excellent stability in the spray tank and uniform coverage upon soil application.

Mechanism and Soil Activity

As a pre-emergence soil herbicide, "Amstor" creates a protective barrier in the topsoil layer. By interacting with soil moisture, the herbicide is absorbed by the developing root systems of weeds before they even reach the surface. This proactive approach is essential for preventing early-season resource competition, allowing the beet seedlings to establish firmly.

• Systemic Action: The active ingredient penetrates weed tissues, ensuring prolonged herbicidal control.
• Application Flexibility: With a capacity for up to 3 treatments per season, producers can effectively manage successive waves of weed emergence based on field conditions.
• Operational Precision: At a recommended rate of 1–2 L/ha, it provides a stable concentration required for effective soil-active performance.

Manufactured by F.Superus Co., Ltd. (Hong Kong/Shanghai), the product adheres to high standards of chemical engineering. By acting as a selective systemic tool, "Amstor" provides a critical safety buffer for fodder beet, eliminating broad-leaved weed competition during the most vulnerable early growth stages.
