SM P-GOLD TZ

Why CM P-Gold TZ is the choice for maize protection

In intensive farming, where every day is critical for yield formation, soil-applied protection is essential. CM P-Gold TZ is a systemic herbicide developed by Shandong Binnong Technology and Superus that works proactively. Its goal is not to «treat» the field after weeds emerge, but to create a «protective barrier» in the topsoil layer before both the crop and the weeds show their first sprouts.

The efficiency of the active ingredient combination

The secret to this product's success lies in the synergy between Terbuthylazine and S-metolachlor. This combination makes it a powerful tool against the two main weed groups: annual grasses and a wide range of broadleaf weeds. Unlike specialized narrow-spectrum agents, this herbicide covers the primary niches of corn competitors at the very earliest stage of development.

Strengths and Weaknesses

• Systemic Control: Absorption through the root system and seedlings ensures weeds perish before reaching the surface.
• Selectivity: The formula is safe for maize itself, allowing agronomists to focus on field cleanliness rather than managing crop stress.
• Usability: The suspension concentrate form ensures excellent stability of the working solution, which distributes evenly across the soil surface.
• Limitations: As a soil herbicide, its efficacy depends directly on soil moisture. In cases of extreme drought without minimal moisture or rainfall, performance may decrease.

This product is optimal for farms practicing conventional or minimum tillage, where it is critical to suppress weeds before they begin consuming nutrients intended for the maize. A consumption rate of 2.0–3.0 l/ha makes it an economically sound solution for protecting large areas.
