Triflural 480

Professional pre-emergence protection for your fields

Triflurex 480 by Makhteshim Agan is a time-tested soil-applied herbicide, widely recognized as a benchmark solution for vegetable crops and winter rapeseed. Its primary strength lies in its ability to establish a reliable, long-lasting protective barrier in the upper soil profile, effectively neutralizing germinating weed seeds before they can compete with the crop.

Why choose Triflurex 480?

• Crop Selectivity: Designed to be gentle on sensitive crops such as onions, garlic, peppers, and cabbage, ensuring development remains uninhibited.
• Spectrum of Control: Provides robust management of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds, including common species like fat hen (white goosefoot) and green foxtail.
• Pre-emergence Efficiency: Acting as a soil-incorporated herbicide, it removes the necessity for intensive weed management during the critical early stages of plant growth.

The core advantage of Triflurex 480 compared to similar products is its selective systemic action. However, to achieve optimal results, proper incorporation into the soil is essential immediately after application. This makes it an ideal choice for commercial farming operations focusing on proactive field management rather than reactive weeding. It is a vital component for those practicing integrated pest management who want to secure a clean field start.

Practical Application Details

Application rates range from 1.0 to 3.0+ L/ha, contingent upon soil texture and the weed spectrum present in the field. Formulated as an emulsifiable concentrate, it mixes readily with water to ensure even distribution. With a pre-harvest interval of only 1 day, it is a highly practical solution for modern agriculture. It should be noted that while extremely effective against annual weeds, it is intended for pre-emergence use and is not a solution for established perennial weed systems.
