Propozit, EC, (Propizochlor, 720 g/l)

Securing your crop start with pre-emergence control

In modern agronomy, the battle against weeds is often won before the crop even sees the sun. Using «Proposit, EC» from «China Chemical Industrial and Research Co. Ltd» is our way of establishing a clean field from day one. As an operator, I look for reliability in a soil herbicide, and this systemic agent provides exactly that by forming a protective barrier against annual grasses and broad-leaved weeds.

Field performance and application

We typically apply this product at a rate of 2–3 liters per hectare. Being a pre-emergence herbicide, it relies heavily on soil moisture. If the soil is too dry, its performance can be compromised, so timing the application right after planting is crucial. The active ingredient, propisochlor (720 g/l), acts by halting cell division in weeds during germination, effectively wiping them out before they break the surface.

Key benefits for farm management:

• Selectivity: It acts gently on crops like sunflower, corn, oilseed rape, and fodder beet, ensuring no phytotoxicity when guidelines are followed.
• User-friendly formulation: The emulsifiable concentrate mixes seamlessly in the sprayer tank, preventing nozzle clogging and ensuring uniform coverage.
• Resource efficiency: One single application is sufficient, which reduces the number of tractor passes, saving fuel, labor, and machine wear.

Operational tips

Since this is a category 2 hazard pesticide, proper safety equipment is mandatory during handling. Once applied, avoid any mechanical soil disturbance for at least two weeks to maintain the integrity of the herbicide layer. By using this product, we effectively eliminate competition for nutrients and water right at the most vulnerable stage of crop development. It is a straightforward, no-nonsense solution that allows us to manage our acreage more efficiently.
