Picket SL

Advanced weed control for soybean and alfalfa crops

For agricultural producers seeking a robust solution for weed management, "Piket SL" by Klov offers a powerful systemic approach. By combining three active ingredients from the imidazolinone group—imazamox, imazapyr, and imazethapyr—this herbicide provides both immediate contact action and long-lasting soil residual control.

Field Application and Strategy

Piket SL serves as a versatile tool in modern crop protection. Because it functions as both a pre-emergence and post-emergence herbicide, it allows for flexible scheduling based on specific field conditions. Whether you are dealing with aggressive annual weeds like green foxtail and common lambsquarters or deep-rooted perennial grasses and broadleaves, this product provides a consistent knockdown effect.

• Systemic Efficacy: The active ingredients are translocated throughout the plant, targeting even the most resilient weed root systems.
• Residual Barrier: By applying as a soil herbicide, you create a protective window that inhibits late-germinating weeds.
• Operational Efficiency: With a recommended dosage of 0.5 to 1.0 liters per hectare and a maximum of one application per season, it is a cost-effective solution for large-scale production.

The water-soluble concentrate (SL) formulation ensures ease of use and compatibility within standard tank mixes. As a non-selective herbicide, it requires careful application calibration to avoid drift, especially when used in the active growing stage of weeds.

Management Considerations

Due to its high efficacy and chemical class, it is important for agronomists to consider crop rotation limitations associated with imidazolinones. When used according to the label, specifically targeting early development stages of weeds, Piket SL drastically reduces the need for additional mechanical or chemical interventions, helping to ensure a cleaner harvest in soybean and alfalfa production fields.
