Promatrix

Reliable Weed Control at the Start of the Season

For agronomists utilizing intensive cultivation technologies for corn and sunflowers, «Promatris» by Ifagri has become a proven tool for soil-based weed control. In conditions where early weed emergence can steal critical moisture and nutrients, this selective systemic herbicide ensures field cleanliness before the crop even sprouts.

Why Choose «Promatris» for Soil Application?

The active ingredient, terbuthylazine, belongs to the triazine class. Its primary advantage is prolonged protective action. The product forms a «protective shield» in the top layer of the soil, effectively blocking the development of annual broad-leaved weeds. Due to its systemic nature, weeds perish as they germinate upon contact with the active ingredient.

• Broad-Spectrum Efficacy: «Promatris» is specifically designed to target the most persistent annual broad-leaved weeds.
• Flexible Application Rates: Depending on soil type and expected weed pressure, agronomists can adjust the rate from 1.0 to 2.0 L/ha. On heavier, humus-rich soils, applying the maximum rate ensures consistent results.
• Crop Safety: Being a selective herbicide, it does not stunt corn or sunflowers when application protocols are followed, which is vital for achieving even and vigorous emergence.

Practical Application Insights

As «Promatris» is a pre-emergence herbicide, the success of the operation is largely dependent on soil moisture. Application should be carried out immediately after sowing while the soil maintains natural moisture. The suspension concentrate formulation ensures rapid dissolution in the tank mix and ease of measuring.

It is important to note that the product is intended for a single application per season. This is an optimal solution for farms aiming to minimize mechanical inter-row cultivation and provide an ideal start for the crop during its most vulnerable growth phase.
