Awsum (Crystal Crop Protection) is a selective post-emergence herbicide containing the active ingredient Pyrithiobac-sodium 10% EC. It is specifically designed to control a wide range of broadleaf weeds in soybean crops.

Key Features of Awsum (Crystal Crop Protection):

  • Broad-spectrum broadleaf weed control: Effectively controls a wide range of broadleaf weeds, including Chenopodium album, Amaranthus viridis, Trianthema portulacastrum, Digera arvensis, and Phyllanthus niruri.

  • Selective action: Awsum is selective for soybean crops, providing effective weed control without harming the desired crop.

  • Systemic action: Awsum is absorbed by the plant and translocated within its tissues, providing control of both above-ground and below-ground parts of the weed.

  • Safe for the environment: Awsum is considered safe for the environment and has a low impact on beneficial insects and non-target organisms.

Benefits of using Awsum (Crystal Crop Protection):

  • Enhanced crop yield and quality: By controlling broadleaf weeds that compete with soybean for nutrients and sunlight, Awsum promotes better crop growth and yield, leading to improved productivity and quality.

  • Reduced weed pressure: Effective weed management reduces the overall weed population in the field, minimizing competition and improving crop performance.

  • Integrated weed management: Awsum can be incorporated into integrated weed management (IWM) programs for effective broadleaf weed control in soybean crops.

Application:

Awsum is applied as a post-emergence foliar spray. The recommended application rate is 300 ml per acre, and the timing is 15-25 days after crop emergence. Refer to the product label for specific application instructions.

Precautions:

  • Use only as directed: Follow the label instructions carefully and use Awsum only on crops and weeds as specified.

  • Prevent spray drift: Avoid drift to non-target crops and sensitive areas by using appropriate spraying techniques and adjusting nozzles.

  • Wear protective gear: Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves, eye protection, and long-sleeved clothing, when handling Awsum.

  • Minimize exposure: Wash thoroughly after handling Awsum and avoid contact with skin and eyes.

  • Safe storage and disposal: Store Awsum in its original container in a cool, dry place, away from food, feed, and children's reach. Dispose of empty containers according to local regulations.

Always read and follow the label instructions carefully before using Awsum (Crystal Crop Protection).
