APPLICATION:
Maximum effect is achieved with proper soil preparation. The application rate depends on soil type and weed infestation level. On light, low-humus soils, use the minimum application rate. Apply the preparation immediately after sowing; if soil moisture is insufficient, harrowing should be performed after application
