Proponet 720, EC, herbicide

Why Proponit 720 is a staple for effective weed management

When you are managing a large acreage, soil-applied herbicides are your first line of defense. Proponit 720, EC from Arysta LifeScience has become a key part of my chemical rotation because it offers a clean start for sensitive crops like corn, sunflower, and soybeans. Its selective action based on propisochlor means the crop grows without early-stage competition from grass and broadleaf weeds.

Field operations and efficiency

Using a soil-applied herbicide like Proponit requires attention to detail—getting the soil structure right is half the battle. When the seedbed is well-prepared and there is sufficient moisture, the chemical creates an active layer that effectively inhibits weed germination. It is a true systemic tool that works exactly where the weeds are starting their growth.

• Operational efficiency: One pre-emergence application is all it takes to handle the flush of weeds during the busy planting window.
• Dosage flexibility: With application rates ranging from 2.0 to 3.0 L/ha, I can adjust the product volume based on the specific pressure of the field.
• Ease of use: As an emulsifiable concentrate, it mixes seamlessly into the tank and doesn't cause nozzle clogging, which is a major time-saver during maintenance checks.

The 3rd hazard class is standard for such products, so as long as basic handling protocols are followed, it remains a predictable and safe option. Knowing that I’m using a high-quality product from Arysta LifeScience gives me confidence that the field will remain clean until the crop reaches canopy closure.
