Advantages of Alfa-Mais herbicide:
High systemicity allows the drug to quickly move to the growth zones of roots and shoots.
Having a specific mechanism of action on the enzyme system of weeds, it affects them after a few hours.
There are no restrictions on crop rotation, it decomposes quickly in the soil, the half-life is 6 days.
It is possible to use in tank mixtures with various fungicides, insecticides and herbicides, but in each case the preparations should be checked for compatibility. High efficiency against the most harmful dicotyledonous weeds.

General recommendations:
The highest effectiveness of the drug is observed when spraying annual weeds in the phase of 2-4 leaves. To increase the herbicidal effect of Alfa-Mais, it is necessary to use surface-active substances (surfactant Alfalip, 0.1 l/100 l of water). Not recommended for use on parent lines ofmaize, sweet corn for popcorn. Do not use in a tank mix with organophosphorus insecticides and do not apply within 14 days before or after treatment with organophosphorus insecticides. Treatment with graminicides should be carried out no earlier than 5 days after application. Do not process crops during periods of stress (cold or hot weather). Do not use Alfa-Mais in a tank mix with imazetapyr-based herbicides or after spraying soybean crops with these drugs.

Recommended tank mixes for corn crops: Alfa-Mais (10 g/ha) + Alfa-Dicamba (0.3-0.4 l/ha) + Alfalip surfactant (0.1 l/100 l of water); Alfa-Mais (10 g/ha) + AlfaEther (0.4-0.5 l/ha) + Surfactant Alfalip (0.1 l/100 l of water); Alpha-Mais (10 g/ha) + Ramses (40-50 g/ha) + Alfalip surfactant (0.1 l/100 l of water), Alpha-Mais (6 g/ha) + Alpha-Bentazon (1.5-2.0 l/ha); with heavy clogging by white quinoa: Alfa-Mais (10 g/ha) + Clinch Forte (50 g/ha) + PA Booster (0.1 l/ha). Mechanism of action of Alpha-Mais Alpha-Mais stops the division of weed cells by affecting their enzyme system. Inhibits the enzyme ALS (acetolactate synthetase) and stops weed growth a few hours after application. In sensitive weeds, it causes cessation of growth, chlorosis, death of growth points, necrosis and complete death. More resistant weeds or those in a later stage of development at the time of treatment may stop growing during the growing season, but they no longer compete with cultivated plants. It acts mainly through the leaf surface of plants. Visible symptoms appear 3-7 days after use. The death of sensitive weeds can last 10-20 days.
