Proxanil 720, EC

Why «Proxanil 720, EC» is the choice for professional crop protection

In modern intensive farming, controlling weeds at the start of the growing season determines the ultimate yield potential. «Proxanil 720, EC» is a soil-applied herbicide from the British brand Fader Alliance, specifically engineered for farmers who prioritize early-stage crop development without the pressure of weed competition.

Agrotechnological advantages

The product functions as a systemic, selective tool. Its primary goal is to establish a «protective shield» in the topsoil layer before the crop emerges. This is critical for sensitive crops like soybeans, sunflowers, and corn, which are highly vulnerable to weed infestation during the first few weeks of growth.

• Control of annual grasses: The active ingredient, Propisochlor, effectively blocks cell division in grass weed sprouts, preventing them from emerging through the soil surface.
• Crop rotation flexibility: When applied at recommended rates (2–3 l/ha), the herbicide does not impose strict limitations on subsequent crops in the rotation.
• Crop safety: Due to its selective nature, the herbicide targets weeds specifically, allowing the crop to establish a strong root system without early stress.

Practical application scenarios

Farmers primarily use Proxanil 720, EC as a pre-emergence solution. Peak efficacy is achieved when applied immediately after sowing, while there is still moisture in the soil. In drier spring conditions, incorporating the herbicide into the soil with light harrows helps activate the product, ensuring consistent performance even with limited rainfall.

For operations focused on winter rapeseed, soybeans, or corn, this herbicide serves as the foundation for a clean field. A single application per season is sufficient to eliminate grass weed pressure during the most critical growth stages, providing the crop with full access to soil nutrients and moisture from day one.
