Sultan KS

A Reliable Foundation for Rapeseed and Cabbage

Israeli agricultural technology has long been synonymous with high efficacy, and "Sultan SC" by Adama Agan Ltd. is a prime example. This pre-emergence soil herbicide has firmly established itself as an essential tool for protecting winter rapeseed and cabbage crops, ensuring field cleanliness during the most critical stage: the germination period.

Protection Mechanism

The product is based on metazachlor, an active ingredient in the chloroacetamide class. As a systemic, selective herbicide, Sultan SC enters weeds through their seedlings and root systems, effectively blocking cell division and protein synthesis. Because it is applied before crop emergence, weeds are eliminated before they can compete with the cultivated plants for moisture, light, and nutrients.

Control Spectrum

Sultan SC effectively manages some of the most common and damaging field invaders:

• Common lambsquarters and field pennycress.
• Shepherd's purse and common chickweed.
• Cleavers and scentless mayweed.
• Purple dead-nettle and field pansy.

Application and Efficiency

Supplied as a suspension concentrate, the product is easy to mix into an effective spray solution. For optimal results, a single treatment at a rate of 1.5–2 liters per hectare is sufficient. Due to its systemic mode of action, the herbicide creates a protective barrier in the topsoil layer, which remains active even under fluctuating weather conditions, provided there is a minimum baseline of soil moisture.

By choosing Sultan SC, farmers prioritize selectivity, allowing their crops to develop without the stress typically caused by weed competition during early growth stages. It is the optimal solution for those aiming for high yields from the very start of the planting season.
