Prometej z.p., + PAR Sajvo

Synergistic Weed Control in Maize Crops

The “Prometey WP + PAR Syaivo” set, manufactured by Zhenjiang Agrin Company Ltd., offers a balanced approach to post-emergence maize protection. The core strength of this product lies in its dual active ingredients: nicosulfuron and thifensulfuron-methyl, which allow for the simultaneous control of a broad spectrum of weeds.

Why choose this tandem?

• Dual action: The herbicide effectively manages annual and perennial grasses, as well as annual broad-leaved weeds. Nicosulfuron provides systemic suppression of grasses, while thifensulfuron-methyl enhances efficacy against broad-leaved species.
• Enhanced with Surfactant: Including the “Syaivo” surfactant (PAR) is a technological necessity rather than a marketing addition. It ensures better wetting of the leaf surface and accelerates the absorption of active ingredients into weed tissues, which is critical in arid conditions or low humidity.
• Selectivity: As a selective herbicide, it is safe for the crop when application guidelines are followed.

Application insights

This product is a classic systemic post-emergence herbicide designed to clear fields after seedling emergence. Being a wettable powder, it requires careful preparation: always mix the powder thoroughly before adding the surfactant. Peak efficacy is achieved with a single application during the active weed growth phase (typically at the 2–5 leaf stage for grasses).

Key strengths: High speed of action and a wide range of controlled weeds. Limitations: Requires precise dosing and adherence to temperature guidelines. This product is an optimal choice for growers looking for a reliable, cost-effective solution for maize protection without the overhead of premium-priced global brands.
