Fusilid Max 125 EC herbicide, selective device after germination, for controlling narrow-leaved grassy weeds, 1 liter

Fusilade Max 125 EC selective post-emergence herbicide device works after germination, contains the active substance fluazifop-p-butyl at a concentration of 125 g/l, and is used to control narrow-leaved annual and perennial grasses inside broad-leaved crops such as potatoes, tomatoes, onions, legumes, carrots, clover, and fruit trees when used according to the label instructions. Fusilade Max works through foliar absorption, where the active substance is absorbed through the leaves of the weeds then transferred inside the plant to the growing tips, roots, and rhizomes, leading to a gradual stop in weed growth then yellowing and drying over a period often extending to several weeks. Therefore, it is considered suitable for controlling grasses within broad-leaved crops without harming the crop when the correct dose and timing are followed. Selective herbicide for narrow-leaved grasses. Weeds such as couch grass, foxtail, zimmer, dnieba, wild oats, and volunteer grains compete strongly with crops for water, nutrients, and light. The problem worsens in fields where control is delayed, as large and perennial weeds become more capable of regrowth from roots or rhizomes. Fusilade Max 125 EC is designed to target grasses after they appear, and it does not work through the soil, so it should be sprayed directly onto the foliage of the weeds. It performs best when weeds are in an active growth stage, especially in small to medium sizes before they lignify or enter stress. Fusilade Max 125 EC specifications: Trade name: Fusilade Max 125 EC Product type: Selective post-emergence herbicide Active substance: Fluazifop-p-butyl Active concentration: 125 g/l Chemical group: ACCase inhibitors Formulation type: Emulsifiable concentrate (EC) Mode of action: Systemic, absorbed through leaves and translocated within the weed Effect type: Selective Control scope: Annual and perennial narrow-leaved grasses Target weeds: Couch grass, foxtail, zimmer, dnieba, wild oats, volunteer grains Suitable crops: Potatoes, tomatoes, onions, legumes, carrots, clover, fruit trees Package size: 1 liter Manufacturing company: Syngenta Country of origin: United Kingdom Advantages of Fusilade Max for grass weed control: - It is a selective post-emergence herbicide specifically for narrow-leaved grasses. - Used after weeds appear within the crop. - Absorbed through leaves and translocated to growing tips, roots, and rhizomes. - Helps control annual and perennial weeds like couch grass, zimmer, and foxtail. - Suitable for broad-leaved crops when used according to recommendations. - Does not work through the soil, targeting existing weeds at the time of spraying. - Its effect is gradual, starting with growth cessation, then yellowing, then drying. - Compatible with spreading agents or mineral oils to improve absorption if needed. - Suitable within agricultural pesticide programs for weed management in fields. Uses of Fusilade Max in broad-leaved crops: - Used in broad-leaved crops affected by grass weed competition. In potatoes, it helps clean planting lines of narrow weeds competing for nutrients and water. In tomatoes, it controls grasses and narrow weeds without affecting the crop outside label instructions. In onions, it is useful in early stages when narrow weeds affect growth and bulb size. Also used in legumes like beans and soybeans to control associated grass weeds, and in carrots to reduce weeds affecting root growth and quality. - It can also be used in clover and fruit trees, with the application directed at weeds around trees, avoiding contact with non-target parts per label instructions. Method of use for Fusilade Max 125 EC: - Used after weeds appear by directly spraying on the foliage of the weeds. - Weeds should be in active growth, with leaves free of dust or dirt for effective absorption. - According to available data, usage rates are: - For annual grasses like foxtail and zimmer: 1.5 to 2.5 ml per 1 liter of water, preferably sprayed at 2-4 leaf stage for maximum efficiency. - For perennial grasses like couch grass and dnieba: 2.5 to 3.5 ml per 1 liter of water to ensure active substance reaches roots and rhizomes and reduces regrowth. - Spray water volume: 100 to 200 liters per acre depending on weed density and plant size. - Complete coverage of targeted weeds should be achieved without excess or runoff, using appropriate spraying equipment for uniform distribution. Best timing for spraying Fusilade Max: - When weeds are small and in an active growth stage. - Early spraying increases response speed and control efficiency, especially for annual weeds manageable before large green mass develops. - Avoid spraying during stress conditions such as severe drought, high temperatures, or after dust storms, as this may reduce absorption. - Avoid spraying before rain or immediate flood irrigation after application to maintain efficacy. Effect of Fusilade Max on weeds: - It does not cause rapid leaf burn like some contact herbicides but typically results in growth cessation within days, followed by gradual yellowing, then complete drying over approximately 2-3 weeks depending on weed type, age, growth stage, and weather conditions. - This gradual effect is typical of systemic herbicides, which require time to translocate inside the weed to growing tips and roots. - Re-spraying before evaluating results is not recommended. Crops compatible with Fusilade Max: - Used in many broad-leaved crops, notably: - Potatoes: to control grasses within planting lines and reduce competition. - Tomatoes: to control grasses and narrow weeds without affecting the crop when used according to instructions. - Onions: in early stages to reduce weeds affecting growth and bulb size. - Legumes like beans and soybeans: to reduce associated grass weeds. - Carrots: to reduce weeds affecting root development. - Clover: to control grass weeds during early growth. - Fruit trees: applied as directed spray around trees, avoiding contact with non-target parts per label. Pre-harvest withholding period: - According to available data: - Onions: 28 days. - Potatoes: 56 days. - Other crops: 6 to 8 weeks depending on the crop. - Always refer to the label before use, as withholding periods vary depending on crop, dose, and application stage. - Do not rely on general periods without confirming specific crop recommendations. Important notes before using Fusilade Max: - It is used on grass crops like wheat, barley, and corn. - It does not work through the soil; spray directly on leaves. - Best results are achieved when weeds are in active growth. - Leaves should be clean and free of dust for effective absorption. - Efficiency decreases under stress conditions like drought or high heat. - Avoid spraying before rain or flood irrigation immediately after application. - Growth stops within days, full results appear in 2-3 weeks. - Compatible spreading agents or mineral oils can be used to enhance absorption, especially for large or dense weeds. - Do not mix randomly with other pesticides or fertilizers without confirming compatibility. Precautions for using Fusilade Max: - Read the label and technical leaflet before use. - Use gloves, masks, and protective glasses during preparation and spraying. - Do not exceed recommended doses. - Avoid spraying in strong wind to prevent drift. - Do not use on grass crops. - Avoid spraying on stressed or drought-damaged weeds. - Keep the product out of reach of children, animals, and food sources. - Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. - Do not reuse empty containers for other purposes. - Follow the withholding period for each crop. Fusilade Max in weed management programs: - Weed control does not rely on a single herbicide but requires an integrated program including timely spraying, reducing weed seed bank, adjusting irrigation, using cultivation or mechanical control when needed, and preventing weeds from setting seed. - Fusilade Max can be integrated into weed management programs in broad-leaved crops, especially when using precise and consistent spraying equipment for larger areas requiring accurate coverage.
