KAYLIS, KS, herbicide

Reliable Soil Protection for Sunflower Crops

Achieving a high sunflower yield begins with effectively managing weeds during the early stages of growth. KAILIS, SC, manufactured by Ukravit Science Park, is a selective systemic herbicide based on prometryn. It is widely used by agronomists to establish a clean field environment by targeting weeds before they emerge.

Practical Field Application

• Pre-emergence barrier: The primary use of this product is as a soil-applied herbicide. It is typically applied immediately after sowing, creating a protective layer that neutralizes the first flush of annual dicot and grassy weeds.
• Selective control: The systemic action ensures that target weeds are destroyed through their root systems while leaving the sunflower plants unaffected, allowing them to compete successfully for soil moisture and nutrients.

As a suspension concentrate, the herbicide offers excellent coverage, ensuring the active ingredient is evenly distributed across the field surface. Given its 3rd hazard class, it is a stable and manageable solution for large-scale operations. The dosage varies between 0.5 and 3.0+ liters per hectare, depending on soil type and expected weed pressure.

Key Operational Tips

To maximize the efficacy of KAILIS, ensure the soil surface is finely crumbled and free of large clods before application. Because it is a single-application treatment, precise timing is essential to close the weed competition window early. By choosing this systemic herbicide, farmers can reduce the need for mechanical weeding and better preserve soil moisture, which is vital for early crop development.
