Mesogrin SC, KC

Technological Features of Mezogreen SС, SC

Mezogreen SС, SC is based on a proven combination of triketone-class active ingredients, specifically mesotrione. This systemic herbicide is engineered for weed control in corn fields where selective and potent action against competing flora is required.

Mechanism of Weed Control

The active ingredient inhibits carotenoid synthesis in weed tissues. In practice, this manifests as bleaching (chlorosis) of the growing points, eventually leading to the plant's death. This systemic property is crucial: the herbicide penetrates the weed through both the foliage and the root system, providing a prolonged protection period.

• Selectivity: Corn is capable of metabolizing mesotrione, making the product safe for the crop when used at the recommended application rates (0.5 – 1.0 L/ha).
• Spectrum of Action: The focus is primarily on controlling annual and perennial broad-leaved weeds, including the most resilient and difficult-to-eradicate species.
• Formulation: The suspension concentrate ensures a stable dispersion of particles in the tank mix, which guarantees uniform leaf coverage and prevents sedimentation in the sprayer.

Practical Field Application

Mezogreen SС, SC is classified as a post-emergence (insurance) herbicide, working effectively on actively growing weeds. Due to its high systemic activity, it is vital to apply the product during the optimal growth stages of the crop. Classified under hazard class 3, the product can be safely handled using standard precautions typical in modern agrochemistry. A single application during the vegetation period is sufficient to effectively manage weed competition during the early growth stages of corn.
