2,4 D Active

Selective Weed Control for Cereal Crops and Corn

«2,4 D Active» by Sunrise Chemicals Co. Ltd. (Shanghai, China) stands as a classic choice for agricultural professionals aiming for reliable weed management. Designed as a systemic herbicide, it serves as a robust solution for controlling broadleaf weeds in winter wheat, barley, and corn fields.

Why Choose 2,4 D Active?

The core strength of this product lies in its selective action. It targets broadleaf weeds—such as white goosefoot, field bindweed, field mustard, wild radish, field pennycress, shepherd's purse, common ragweed, and perennial sow thistle—without causing damage to the cereal crops themselves. Unlike non-selective agents, this product allows for safe post-emergence application, provided the growth stage of the crop is optimal.

Technical Specifications and Field Performance

• Application Method: Designed as a foliar (insurance) herbicide, it ensures rapid absorption through the leaves, moving systemically through the weed tissues to provide complete control.
• Dosage and Efficiency: With an application rate of 0.7–1.7 l/ha, it offers flexibility to address various infestation levels, ensuring cost-effectiveness.
• Ease of Use: Supplied as a water-soluble concentrate, the preparation process is straightforward for standard spray equipment.

Pros: High systemic activity, excellent selectivity, and significant cost savings. Cons: Like most selective herbicides, it requires strict adherence to temperature guidelines and timing to ensure optimal efficacy and safety for the main crop. 2,4 D Active is best suited for farmers who require a proven, effective tool for controlling primary waves of broadleaf weeds without the need for complex, overpriced additives. Its single-treatment requirement makes it a highly efficient operational choice for the busy growing season.
