Trimax 480 SL (Trimax 480 SL)

Mechanism of Action and Systemic Efficiency

Trimax 480 SL is based on a 480 g/L glyphosate formulation, providing a robust solution for total vegetation control. As a systemic herbicide, it enters the plant through the foliage, inhibiting the synthesis of aromatic amino acids. Unlike contact herbicides, glyphosate translocates via the phloem directly to the plant's growing points and root system, making it essential for managing deep-rooted perennial weeds.

Technological Advantages

The soluble concentrate (SL) formulation ensures excellent tank mix stability. A key technical feature is the high purity of the active ingredient, which minimizes the risk of sedimentation and nozzle clogging. The product exhibits superior leaf adhesion, allowing for rapid absorption, which significantly reduces the risk of wash-off by rainfall shortly after application.

Flexibility in Agricultural Practices

• Weed Control: Highly effective against a broad spectrum of annual and perennial grasses and broad-leaved weeds. Its systemic action ensures the complete eradication of the plant's underground reproductive organs.
• Desiccation: Under high-moisture conditions, Trimax 480 acts as a desiccant for crops such as sunflower, soy, and flax prior to harvest, helping to standardize seed moisture and reduce harvest losses.
• Application Rates: With a flexible dosage range (from 0.5 to over 3.0 L/ha), the product can be adapted to specific field requirements, ranging from light maintenance to the elimination of persistent perennial infestations.

The product is limited to one application per season, requiring careful scheduling based on the growth stage of the weeds (peak efficacy is achieved during active growth). Categorized under safety class 3, applications should follow standard safety protocols for field, vegetable, fruit, and potato crop management.
