Sulfonyl

Efficient Weed Control in Corn Fields

When working with «Sulfonil» by «Agrokhimichni Tekhnolohii», the key to success is timing. This systemic herbicide based on nicosulfuron has become our go-to solution for tackling tough weeds like quackgrass, ragweed, and foxtail. Since it is a post-emergence herbicide, it acts specifically on the foliage of actively growing weeds, making it essential to apply it before the weeds overgrow the crop.

Operational Benefits

• Formulation: The water-dispersible granule form is a major plus. It mixes cleanly in the sprayer tank without clogging the nozzles, saving significant time on maintenance.
• Systemic Action: The active ingredient travels quickly through the plant, ensuring complete control from the leaf down to the roots.
• Selectivity: It is highly effective on corn while remaining safe for the crop when applied within the recommended rate of 0.5 – 1.0 L/ha.

Practical Tips for Field Operators

As an operator, I appreciate that this product is straightforward to handle. It is a selective herbicide, so you need to be precise during application. Since it is absorbed through the leaves, we aim for dry weather windows to ensure the product doesn't wash off. A single application is sufficient to keep the field clean until canopy closure. The 3rd hazard class makes it relatively easy to manage regarding safety protocols. Remember: the faster you get it on the weeds while they are still in early stages, the better the final result. If you miss the window, efficiency drops, so stick to the growth stage recommendations strictly.
