Professional Weed Control for Maize Fields

The herbicide "Shlyakh" is a professional-grade plant protection product manufactured by Beijing NAB International Co. (Zibo, China). Developed as a systemic selective herbicide, it has become a staple for maize growers looking for a reliable, time-tested solution to manage weed competition. The active ingredient, Nicosulfuron, provides excellent control over a broad spectrum of grasses and specific broadleaf weeds that typically threaten maize yields.

Key Features and Application

Designed as water-dispersible granules, "Shlyakh" is easy to measure, transport, and mix, ensuring optimal solubility in the field. As a post-emergence herbicide, it acts systematically by being absorbed through the leaves and stems, quickly translocating to the growth points of the weeds. This makes it particularly effective against aggressive species such as quackgrass (Agropyron repens), common barnyard grass, and various species of pigweed and ragweed.

• Selectivity and Safety: Acting as a selective herbicide, it effectively eliminates weeds without causing stress to the maize crop, provided it is applied within the recommended growth stages.
• Broad Spectrum: Specifically targets stubborn weeds like common ragweed, redroot pigweed, and Canada smartweed (pink knotweed).
• Systemic Action: By targeting the physiological development of the weed, it prevents regrowth, ensuring the crop has the necessary space and nutrients to reach its full potential.

Distributed in Ukraine via the Agro-Soyuz branch, "Shlyakh" adheres to high quality standards, falling under the 3rd hazard class, which requires standard safety protocols during application. By choosing this post-emergence solution, farmers can efficiently manage field sanitation, reducing competitive stress on the corn crop and ultimately securing a more productive harvest. Its consistency and efficacy make it an essential tool for modern integrated crop management.
