Salyut 40 MD

Efficient Weed Control in Maize Fields

In modern intensive farming, controlling weeds during the early development stages of maize is a decisive factor for final yields. Salut 40 MD by "TerraVita Ukraine" is a specialized solution based on nicosulfuron, engineered to meet the highest agronomic standards. The primary advantage of this product lies in its formulation: Oil Dispersion (OD).

Why is Oil Dispersion more effective?

Unlike standard suspension concentrates, the OD formulation ensures superior adhesion to the waxy cuticle of weed leaves and facilitates faster penetration of the active ingredient into the plant tissue. This is crucial when dealing with overdeveloped weeds or during dry conditions when plant metabolic rates are naturally slowed down.

Key Benefits:

• Systemic Action: The herbicide translocates rapidly through the plant's vascular system, inhibiting cell division. While total weed mortality occurs within 1–3 weeks, competitive growth stops just hours after application.
• Wide Spectrum: "Salut 40 MD" effectively manages both difficult-to-control perennials (e.g., Couch grass) and a broad range of annual broad-leaved and grass weeds, including Pigweed, Field mustard, Wild radish, Chickweed, and various Barnyard grasses.
• Selective Weed Control: As a selective herbicide, it is gentle on the crop, allowing maize to develop without the stress of competing for nutrients and water.

Application Insights

This product is designed for post-emergence application. The recommended dosage ranges from 1.0 to 2.0 L/ha, depending on weed density and the specific weed composition in the field. Thanks to the high concentration and the premium adjuvants included in the formula, the product performs exceptionally well without the need for additional surfactants.

Important Note: The product is formulated for a single application per season. When applying to maize crops, it is essential to monitor the growth stage, typically targeting the 3 to 10 leaf stage of the crop. Classified as Hazard Class 3, standard safety measures for handling agrochemicals must be observed at all times.
