Переваги гербіциду Сумаро:
Controls weeds resistant to other herbicides (e.g. black nightshade)
Prevents the emergence of resistance to drugs from the group of sulfonylureas.
Fast and prolonged action that prevents the appearance of subsequent waves of weeds.
It can be used at various stages of crop and weed development.

Mechanism of action:
Mesotrione blocks the action of an important plant enzyme and prevents the formation of carotenoids in weed plants. Without carotenoids, light energy and the byproducts of photosynthesis destroy chlorophyll and cell membranes. As a result, leaves quickly discolor, followed by necrosis and death of weeds. The active substance mesotrione quickly penetrates the plant through the leaves, roots and shoots and causes the growth of sensitive weeds to stop within 1-2 days after application and their complete destruction within 2 weeks.
