Alpha-Permether, CS, herbicide

Securing Your Crops at the Early Growth Stage

Effective weed control during the emergence period is critical for the yield potential of row crops. Alfa-Prometrin, SC, manufactured by Alfa Smart Agro, is a selective soil-applied herbicide designed to suppress annual grasses and broadleaf weeds before they can establish themselves and compete with your crops for water and nutrients.

Application Strategy

As a systemic pre-emergence herbicide, Alfa-Prometrin creates a protective chemical barrier in the topsoil layer. The active ingredient, prometryn, is absorbed by weed seeds and seedlings, disrupting photosynthesis and effectively eliminating the weeds before they emerge.

• Target Crops: Soybeans, sunflowers, carrots, peas, beans, and coriander.
• Dosage: 2.0–3.0 L/ha. Adjust the rate based on soil texture; heavier soils typically require higher doses.
• Treatment Frequency: Strictly limited to one application per season.

For best results, field preparation is key. The soil should be well-tilled and free of large clods to ensure the herbicide forms a uniform, continuous film. Adequate soil moisture at the time of application is also crucial for activating the product.

Why Choose Alfa-Prometrin

The primary advantage of this product is its high selectivity. When applied according to the label, it provides excellent safety for delicate crops like carrots or coriander while maintaining high herbicidal activity. By preventing early competition, growers allow their crops to get a healthy, stress-free start. With its Class 3 safety rating, it is a manageable and reliable component of modern integrated weed management programs, helping farmers optimize their field operations and focus on long-term productivity.
