Systemic control mechanisms
As a selective systemic herbicide, "Zlatomitron" focuses on eliminating unwanted vegetation while ensuring the safety of the beet crop. It is highly effective against a wide range of broadleaf weeds, including:

- Field mustard;
- Shepherd's purse;
- Common chickweed and cleavers;
- Purple dead-nettle.
Available as a suspension concentrate, the formulation ensures stability and ease of mixing. It can be applied as a pre-emergence (soil) herbicide, establishing a defensive layer, as well as a post-emergence treatment, providing flexibility in agricultural management.
Application guidelines
With a maximum of 3 treatments allowed per season, "Zlatomitron" offers significant versatility. The application rate ranges from 1 to 6 liters per hectare, depending on weed pressure and crop growth stage. Classified under hazard class 3, it is designed for standard professional agricultural use.
