Applicatory aspects

EMPLOYMENT: It is a herbicide for the weeding of the wheat, bowline, oat, rye, corn, sorghum, asparagus, apple tree, lawns and pastures, ornamental lawns, sweater fields and sporting fields, grassy carpets of graminaceous, terrestrial agricultural without cultivation. RANGE OF ACTION: It checks numerous annual and perennial dicotyledons The following weeds are more sensitive: Abutilon theophrasti (soft rag), Amaranthus spp. (amaranti), Bidens spp. (earwig), Calistegia sepium (Vilucchione), Centaurea cyanus (fiordaliso), Chenopodium album (farinello), Cirsium arvense (stoppione), Convolvulus arvensis (vilucchio), Datura stramonium (stramonio), Fumaria officinalis (fumaria), Galium aparine (attaccamano), Phytolacca decamdra (Turkish grape), Polygonum aviculare (correggiola), Polygonum persicaria (persicaria), Fallopia convolvulus (black bindweed), Rumex spp. (romice), Sycios angulatus (sicio), Senecio vulgaris (senecione), Solanum nigrum (grass nightshade), Spergula arvensis (spergola), Stellaria mediates (centocchio), Taraxacum officinalis (blowpipe), Vicia spp. (veccia), Xanthium spp. (italic nappola). The following weeds are, instead, middly sensitive: Anagallis arvensis (pimpernel), Capsella bursa-pastoris (the shepherd's purse), Matricaria chamomilla (common camomile), Crisantemum segetum (wild chrysanthemum), Ecballium elaterium (asinine watermelon), Papaver spp. (poppy), Raphanus raphanistrum (wild radish), Sinapis arvensis (common mustard), Urtica urens (nettle), Veronica spp. (veronica). FORMULATIONS: Watery solution Are available formulations of: - Dicamba + MCPA, for the weeding of wheat, bowline, oat, rye, corn, apple tree; - Dicamba + Diuron, for the weeding of the asparagus; - Dicamba + Mecoprop, for the weeding of grassy carpets and lawns of graminaceous; - Dicamba + Mecoprop + Bromoxinil + MCPA for the weeding of the wheat, bowline, rye and oat; MODALITIES OF USE: The following modalities and doses of employment are reported to products in the form of watery solution with 21,2% of active principle. - Wheat, bowline, rye, oat: 0,4-0,5 l/ha, from the stadium of 4-5 leaves of the cultivation until the beginning of the rising. In presence of weeds that are middly sensitive it is recommended to mix with products that contain MCPA and Mecoprop. - Corn: 0,75-1,2 l/ha, in post-emergency, when the cultivation has not exceeded the height of 40 cm yet. The product must not be applied on corn's crops installed on sandy grounds because it could be phyto-toxic for the cultivation. It must not be applied on pure lines of seed corn and on sweet corn. - Asparagus: 0,2-0,5 l/ha, in spring before the emergency of the turionis. The treatment must preferably be performed on weeded grounds and slightly damp. - Granella sorghum: 0,75 l/ha, in post-emergency before the plants of sorghum have exceeded the 5° leaf. In case of employment on new varieties to preventively check the selectivity. - Lawns of graminaceous (for forage and grassy carpets):it is necessary to effect the treatment against the weeds that have a wide leaf when they are in the first stadiums of development, at least 4 days before the following cut. Dose: 1 l/ha for a full fiel applications or preparing a solution at the 0,2% (20 ml of product every 10 liters of water) if it is used for located treatments. In case of interventions on lawns of new plant, it is necessary to treat after the second cut. - Agricultural grounds without cultivation: to limit the dicotyledonous weeds, to avoid the dissemination and to maintain a vegetable coverage to the ground to limit the erosion, it must be used the dose of 0,5-0,6 l/ha . For the total elimination of the vegetation it must be used the dose of 1,2 l/ha. From the treatment to the seeding of the following crops, at least 20 days must spend. The product must be applied during the firsts stadiums of the development to eliminate the competition of the weeds. It doesn't feel the unexpected rains, because it has a rapid ability of penetration and a persistent action between the 3 and the 12 weeks. ABSORPTION AND TRANSLOCATION: It quickly is absorbed by leaf and radical way and translocated in the whole plant by xylematic and phloematic way. COMPATIBILITY: It results compatible with the products that are used for the post-emergency weeding of the dicotyledonous plants. PHYTO-TOXICITY: It absolutely needs to avoid that the sprayer cloud comes to contact with the near sensitive crops (ex. beet, soy, sunflower) that could be damaged.
