Aquatix 800 EC

Professional pre-emergence weed control

"Aquati 800 EC" by Syngenta is a systemic soil herbicide designed to establish a protective barrier in the soil, preventing annual grass and broad-leaved weeds from establishing. Powered by prosulfocarb, a thiocarbamate-based active ingredient, it works by targeting weeds during their germination phase, ensuring your primary crop faces minimal competition during its most vulnerable early stages.

Practical field application

This herbicide is a selective tool widely used for pre-emergence protection of onions, carrots, and winter wheat. By forming a uniform film on the soil surface, it stops weeds before they break through the ground. Key scenarios for use include:

• Vegetable crops: Both onions and carrots exhibit slow initial growth; "Aquati 800 EC" provides the necessary head start by eliminating weed pressure before the crop requires its full potential.
• Winter wheat: Early applications provide a clean field during the crucial pre-winter period, significantly reducing nutrient competition.

Technical requirements for maximum efficiency

As a soil-applied herbicide, the effectiveness is heavily dependent on soil conditions. A fine-tilth, moist soil profile is essential for the herbicide to bind correctly and activate. Application rates range from 0.5 to over 3.0 L/ha, depending on soil type and weed density forecasts. Given its Class 2 toxicity profile, adherence to safety protocols is mandatory. The product is designed for a single application per season, making precise field assessment vital for optimizing your crop protection strategy.
