Simba

A Reliable Soil Barrier for Crop Protection

"Simba" from ZAT "Avgust-Bel" is a systemic soil-applied herbicide that agronomists rely on for protecting sensitive crops during the early vegetation stage. Based on S-metolachlor, this product provides effective control over annual grasses and certain broadleaf weeds before they can even emerge, eliminating early competition with your main crop.

Application Strategy

The product acts as a preventive shield. Its core advantage lies in its selectivity. Due to high crop safety, this herbicide is an ideal solution for maintaining field cleanliness in crops such as:

• Industrial crops: rapeseed, soybeans, sunflowers.
• Row and vegetable crops: corn, fodder beet, cabbage.

The best strategy involves application strictly before emergence (pre-emergence herbicide). The dosage ranges from 1.0 to 2.0 L/ha, depending on weed pressure and soil type. As an emulsifiable concentrate, "Simba" distributes well within the soil horizon, creating a consistent protective layer. Please note that the protocol allows for only one application per season, making it crucial to accurately calculate the dose based on the specific phytosanitary background of the field.

Practical Field Performance

The systemic action of S-metolachlor prevents weed germination at the earliest stages. When applied to well-prepared, moist soil free of large clods, the herbicide guarantees the crop is free from weed competition during the most vulnerable period of its growth. With a toxicity classification of 3, it is safe to use when following standard agricultural safety protocols.
