Herbicide, wettable powder, (Methyl triflusulfuron, 500 g/kg)

Precision Weed Control for Fodder Beet

Achieving a clean field is crucial for the health and yield of fodder beet. The herbicide Kontroler, w.p., containing 500 g/kg of triflusulfuron-methyl, is a professional-grade crop protection agent manufactured by F.Meaton Limited, London. Designed for selective post-emergence application, it provides a surgical approach to managing broadleaf weeds that threaten root development.

Practical Field Application

This systemic herbicide is chosen by agronomists to handle specific weed pressure scenarios during the growing season. Its primary role as a foliar application tool makes it highly effective against:

• Common lambsquarters (Chenopodium album) and redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus) — common yield robbers.
• Purple deadnettle (Lamium purpureum).
• Various annual broadleaf weeds.

By acting systemically through the leaves, the active ingredient interrupts cell division in the target weeds while remaining safe for the fodder beet crop when applied correctly.

Application Guidelines

To maximize the performance of this British-manufactured product, field operations should align with these technical standards:

• Dosage: A precise application rate of 0.03–0.06 kg/ha ensures cost-effective weed management.
• Flexibility: With up to 3 applications allowed per season, growers can target multiple weed germination flushes.
• Safety Buffer: A pre-harvest interval of 30 days must be strictly observed.

As a wettable powder (w.p.), the product integrates easily into tank mixes and spraying programs. With its selective mode of action, Kontroler allows farmers to suppress competition without damaging the crop. Being classified as a Hazard Class 3 substance, standard protective equipment is required during handling and application to ensure operator safety. F.Meaton Limited ensures that every batch meets the high standards required for reliable crop protection in demanding agricultural environments.
