Podmarin 100 ml

A systemic post-emergence herbicide for controlling annual and perennial dicotyledonous weeds in corn and cereal crops. This two-component systemic post-emergence herbicide is applied to corn and cereal crops to protect them from annual and perennial dicotyledonous weeds.

Active ingredients: 2-ethylhexyl 2,4-D and Florasulam.

Formulation – emulsifiable concentrate.

Product features:

• is characterized by its reliability in controlling a wide range of dicotyledonous weeds in cereal crops;
• has high selectivity toward crop plants;
• is distinguished by a wide application temperature range from +8 °C to 25 °C;
• is widely used in regions with low precipitation;
• has a short soil degradation period (14–20 days), so it does not negatively affect crops in the crop rotation;
• is compatible with other plant protection products (herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, growth regulators, nitrogen fertilizers)
• effective against cleavers, horsetail, thistle species, black nightshade, chamomile, and others.

Spectrum of activity:
Highly susceptible: cleavers, Theophrastus's ragwort, common shepherd's purse, field mustard, large-seeded cardamine, field chickweed, white goosefoot, thistle (species), white goosefoot, hybrid goosefoot, prostrate amaranth, broad-leaved goosefoot, wild mustard (species), chamomile (species), field chickweed, common starwort, ragweed, bittercress (species), wild radish, wild poppy.

Moderately sensitive: ragweed (species), common dandelion, field bindweed, black nightshade.

Action of the Podmarin herbicide
Application of the product to wheat crops begins during the tillering stage and continues until the formation of the second internode begins. Control of dicotyledonous weeds in corn crops is carried out during the 3–7 leaf stage of the crop. After contact with plants, the herbicide is rapidly absorbed by the leaf surface and accumulates at the growth points of the meristematic tissues of the leaves, stem, and root.

2-ethylhexyl 2,4-D disrupts plant metabolism by blocking structural and enzymatic proteins, which leads to accelerated growth of the upper surfaces of leaves, stems, and roots.

As a result of the active ingredient 2-ethylhexyl 2,4-D’s effect on weeds, they become noticeably twisted and cracked, leading to a significant reduction in the uptake of essential nutrients. At the same time, the turgor of the entire plant increases and the root system ceases to function.

The active ingredient Florasulam acts as an inhibitor of the enzyme acetolactate synthase. The first symptoms of damage become noticeable on the 1st–3rd day, and complete destruction of unwanted vegetation occurs 1–2 weeks after application of Podmarin.

Application rate: 100 ml per 200 square meters.
