4Farmers Sulfosulfuron 750 Herbicide is a selective herbicide absorbed by foliage and roots. It is rapidly translocated and acts by inhibiting acetolactate synthase (ALS), an enzyme necessary for root and shoot growth in sensitive plants. 4Farmers Sulfosulfuron 750 Herbicide is a water dispersible granular herbicide for use in Wheat and Triticale. It can be used as a pre-plant, incorporated by sowing, for the control of Wild Turnip, suppression of Barley Grass and Brome Grass, or as a post emergent for the control of Silvergrass. Wild Radish and Wild Turnip, and suppression of Barley Grass, Brome Grass, Wild Mustard (Sinapis arvensis) and Wild Oats.

 

Pre-emergent: Apply to bare soil prior to sowing or at sowing and incorporate by the sowing operation to give thorough mixing. If applied to dry soil and sowing is to be delayed, incorporate immediately after spraying to prevent loss by wind erosion. For best results apply to moist soil when follow-up rain is likely to occur within 7-10 days. Weeds may emerge and will become stunted and uncompetitive soon after application although final results may not show for some weeks.

 

Post-emergent: Weeds should be young and actively growing. Use the higher rate under heavy weeds pressure and for larger weeds. A follow-up spray with a suitable herbicide may be necessary to control subsequent germinations. Best weed control is obtained when rainfall wets the soil to a depth of 5 to 7.5 cm within 7-10 days of application. Weeds will become stunted and uncompetitive soon after application although final results may not show for some weeks. When treatment is delayed or where weeds are not actively growing due to adverse conditions, for example, dry, waterlogged, frosty or diseased conditions, nutrient deficiency, high insect pressure or previous herbicide treatment, reduce levels of control may result. 4Farmers Sulfosulfuron 750 Herbicide will remain in the soil for a period of time. The persistence of 4Farmers Sulfosulfuron 750 Herbicide in the soil is dependent on various environmental conditions e.g. soil pH, soil moisture, soil temperature and organic matter. Crops other than Wheat and Triticale may be very sensitive to low soil concentrations of 4Farmers Sulfosulfuron 750 Herbicide, thus prior to using 4Farmers Sulfosulfuron Herbicide, careful consideration should be given to crop rotation plants(see Crop Safety and Crop Rotation Guidelines).

 

 

Apply by boom spray with flat fan nozzles. Ensure good spray coverage is obtained. Apply using 40 to 100 L of water/ha. Avoid overlapping of boom runs. Use higher water volumes where crop or weed density is high. DO NOT apply by aircraft.
