ACETER SUPER

Clean fields from day one: why choose Aceter Super

Success in sunflower and corn production is determined long before the first seedlings appear. In intensive farming, where weeds compete for moisture and nutrients, a pre-emergence soil herbicide is a key tool for economic security. Aceter Super, based on acetochlor (1.5–3 l/ha), provides a robust protective "screen" on the soil surface.

Agronomic efficiency of Aceter Super

The product acts as a selective systemic herbicide. Its primary function is to inhibit the germination of annual grass and broad-leaved weeds. Unlike post-emergence solutions, applying Aceter Super before crop emergence helps avoid "herbicide shock," giving the plant a head start in development.

• Application Timing: Must be applied pre-emergence. The product creates a barrier that weed sprouts cannot penetrate.
• Soil Conditions: Maximum efficiency is achieved on moist, well-prepared soil. If moisture is limited, shallow incorporation with harrows is recommended to improve the contact of the active ingredient with the soil solution.
• Competition Control: The main goal is to clear the field of the most aggressive annual "invaders" during the critical early growth stage of corn and sunflowers.

Practical Tips for Agronomists

Aceter Super (formulated as an emulsifiable concentrate) requires careful attention to application rates, which depend on soil texture and humus content. Heavy loamy soils require rates at the upper end of the spectrum, while lighter sandy soils require lower rates. It is crucial to remember that this is a single-use product (maximum of 1 application), so strict adherence to regulations ensures that fields remain clean until the canopy closes.

Since this is a class 2 hazard product, prioritize safety and sprayer calibration. Even distribution across the field is the primary factor for success. Aceter Super minimizes the need for subsequent treatments, making your agronomic cycle significantly more predictable.
