Gold Star

Professional weed control from the Cherkasy agro-factory

Managing stubborn broadleaf weeds in cereal and sunflower fields requires more than just standard solutions. "Gold Star," developed by the Cherkasy-based "Fabryka ahrokhimikativ" (Agrochemical Factory), is a selective post-emergence herbicide designed to tackle the most resilient flora while ensuring crop safety. This systemic herbicide is an essential tool for farmers looking to protect their yield from competition for nutrients and water.

Synergistic power for maximum efficacy

The core advantage of "Gold Star" lies in its active ingredient composition: triasulfuron and tribenuron-methyl. This combination creates a powerful synergy that controls a wide spectrum of weeds, including Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense), field bindweed, white goosefoot, wild mustard, and shepherd's purse. By acting on the cellular level, the herbicide stops weed growth almost immediately after application, leading to complete destruction within a few weeks.

Why choose Gold Star?

• Systemic action: It is absorbed by leaves and translocated throughout the weed, ensuring that even deep-rooted species are suppressed.
• Economic efficiency: With a dosage rate of up to 25 grams per hectare, it offers a cost-effective solution for large-scale agricultural operations.
• User-friendly formulation: The water-soluble granules dissolve easily in tank mixes, reducing handling time and risks associated with dust.
• Selectivity: Being a selective herbicide, it leaves the main crop unharmed, allowing for aggressive treatment of weeds without suppressing the yield potential.

Application and safety

Gold Star is designed for a single application per season, making the timing of the spray critical for success. It is best suited for wheat, barley, rye, and sunflowers at the post-emergence stage. While the product is highly effective, it falls under the 3rd hazard class, necessitating careful adherence to handling and safety protocols. For agronomists managing fields infested with a variety of difficult weeds, "Gold Star" provides the reliability needed to ensure a clean and healthy crop canopy.
