CENTURION, K.E. (240 g/L) [active ingredient — clethodim, 240 g/L] — a universal selective herbicide for controlling all types of grassy weeds.
Base unit
1 L.
Centurion is supplied and applied in compatibility with the surfactant Amigo, in a ratio of 1:3.
Advantages of Centurion:
— low application rates and stable results regardless of soil-climatic and weather conditions;
— knockdown effect and high efficacy;
— possibility of use in tank mixtures.
Using Amigo provides:
— high dispersibility and stability of working solutions both when applying Centurion alone and in tank mixtures;
— excellent contact of the product and its adhesion to plants;
— active penetration of clethodim (active ingredient of Centurion) into plants due to the dissolution of the cuticle of sensitive species.
Spectrum of protected crops:
Sugar beet, table beet, fodder beet, potato, carrot, onion, flax, soybean, heart-seed poppy.
Spectrum of controlled weeds:
— Annual grasses — all types, including self-seeding cereals and corn;
— Perennial grasses, including creeping bentgrass, palmate dock, and gumweed.
Application timing:
*2-6 leaf stage of annual grasses;
*at a height of 10-20 cm for perennial grasses;
*regardless of crop development stage.
Application rates:
— 0.2-0.4 L/ha Centurion + 0.6-1.2 L/ha Amigo — against annual grassy weeds;
— 0.7-1.0 L/ha Centurion + 2.1-3.0 L/ha Amigo — against perennial grassy weeds (including dock).
With good spraying equipment and application in early weed development stages, minimal doses of 0.2 L/ha and 0.7 L/ha respectively are used. Maximum doses are applied to overgrown weeds and high weed density. Heavy rainfall within one hour after application does not affect its efficacy. In tank mixtures, Centurion combines ideally with herbicides based on bromoxynil, MCPA, desmedipham, fenmedipham, ethofumesate, triflusulfuron, metamitron, cloquarate, and bentazon.
Mixing characteristics:
Whether applying Centurion alone or in tank mixtures with other herbicides, Amigo should be added to the sprayer tank last, preferably into the bulk of the working solution. Otherwise, due to excessive foaming upon adding Amigo, part of the working solution may spill out of the sprayer tank.
Packaging:
Centurion and Amigo are supplied in 1 L and 3 L plastic bottles (each cardboard box contains 3 L Centurion and 9 L Amigo).
