General information:
«Test» is a systemic, non-selective herbicide. The product excellently controls a wide spectrum of both annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds.
Due to the presence of surfactant, «Test» penetrates plants more quickly and its efficacy is less dependent on weather conditions, which is an additional advantage. After penetrating the plant through the leaf surface, «Test» moves into the plant’s root system and causes its death.
The product is used in weed control systems for various crops, particularly in minimum tillage technology, as well as in post-emergence applications for inter-row treatments of fruit trees and vineyards. It may also be used as a desiccant.
The product can be applied in tank mixtures with pre- and post-emergence herbicides using boom and hand sprayers.
«Test» penetrates plants only through leaves or young shoots, does not affect plants via soil, and does not inhibit seed germination. In soil, the product rapidly loses activity and then breaks down into natural substances.
