Argument, v. r.
Systemic herbicide of continuous action for the destruction of vegetative plants and weeds. Desiccant of agricultural crops.
Active substance: glyphosate isopropylamine salt, 480 g/l, in acid equivalent 360 g/l
Manufacturer: Peters & Burg, Ltd., Hungary
Formulation: water solution
Tare unit: canister 1 l, 20 l
Mechanism of action. The active substance is absorbed by the aerial part of the plant and spreads throughout all its organs, disrupting the processes of protein synthesis. Blocking of photosynthesis and respiration in plants leads to their complete death, including the root system.
Characteristics and advantages:
(//tractor-service.com)
Thanks to its systemic action, the drug destroys not only the above-ground part of plants, but also their root system, which is extremely important in the fight against perennial root-shooting weeds.
The drug makes it possible to effectively fight both annual and perennial weeds in fields intended for sowing; thus, the preservation of moisture and the provision of timely sprouts of the culture are achieved.
Systemic application of the drug allows to significantly reduce the total weediness of the field and, as a consequence, to minimize
mechanical soil processing.
The use of the drug as a
desiccant makes it possible to significantly speed up and facilitate the process of harvesting agricultural crops, reduce crop losses due to the spread of diseases and the influence of adverse weather conditions, and significantly save fuel for harvesting.
Recommendations for use.
Like a herbicide. The drug is applied by a single ground spraying of vegetative weeds. The consumption rate of the drug depends on the type of weeds and their development phase. Spraying is carried out 12–14 days before mechanical processing (cultivation, disking, plowing). Rain within 6 hours after spraying can significantly reduce the effectiveness of the drug. The drug should not be used if the air temperature is lower than +12 0C or higher than +25 0C. The consumption rate of the working solution depends on the density of the grass and is 200–400 l/ha. It is important to fully and uniformly cover the plants with the working solution.
When mixed with water, the drug is prone to excessive foaming. Therefore, to prepare the working solution, fill the tank of the sprayer with water to 3/4 of the volume, add the necessary amount of the drug and turn on the mixing mode. Continuing mixing, fill the tank with water to the full volume.
Like a desiccant. Processing is carried out mainly with the help of aviation 12–14 days before harvesting with a drug consumption rate of 3 l/ha. The moisture content of the grain should not exceed 30%. The consumption rate of the working solution during aviation processing should be at least 100 l/ha.
