Ramses herbicide is a systemic post-emergence herbicide for the eradication of annual and perennial grasses, as well as annual broadleaf weeds. The active ingredient is a sulfonylurea derivative, specifically rimsulfuron at a concentration of 250 g/kg, which effectively blocks cell division processes in weeds, leading to their death. Ramses is applied to crops such as corn, tomatoes, and potatoes, with the optimal application stage being from 1 to 7 leaves of the crop. The dosage of the preparation varies from 40 to 50 g per hectare depending on the crop, while the volume of working liquid required is 200-300 l/ha. The optimal application temperature is in the range of 15 to 25 degrees Celsius.
The preparation rapidly degrades in the soil, allowing no restrictions on crop rotation and reducing the risk of chemical accumulation in the soil. Due to its systemic action, Ramses effectively eliminates a wide spectrum of weeds, including those resistant to 2,4-D, making it a universal tool for protecting crops from undesirable vegetation. The formulation is available as a powder that dissolves easily in water, ensuring convenience in preparing the working solution and uniform distribution of the preparation during spraying.
Despite its broad efficacy, Ramses is not recommended for use on sugar beet and sugar corn crops, as well as on parental lines for seed corn production, to avoid adverse effects on these crops. The manufacturer of the preparation is Sinokem Hebei Corporation from China. Packaging includes 600 g bags containing 20 water-soluble packets of 30 g each, ensuring ease of dosing and storage.
