Crop	Dose rate, l/ha	Weeds	Terms of application
Sunflower (varieties and hybrids stable to imidazolines)	1,0-1,2	Annual grass and dicotyledonous weeds	Spraying in phase 4 true leaves, in early stage of development of weeds

Compatibility

It is inappropriate to use in tank mixtures with other means of protection (highly effective). Cannot be used in tank mixtures with organophosphorus insecticides.

Application features

• apply in phase of 4 true leaves;

• require uniform application throughout the area;

• do not allow the demolition of the working fluid in the adjacent fields;

• not recommended for use with daily average temperatures below +10°С, and with a difference in night and day temperatures above +15°С;

• the product from the imidazolinone group is not recommended to be used on the same field more than 1 time in 3 years;

• when using soft water the minimum dose rate should be 1 l/ha.

WARNING:
After application of the product it is important to adhere to the following crop rotation:
• without restrictions (sunflower hybrids, rapeseed hybrids resistant to active substances of the imidazolinone group); after 4 months (wheat, rye);
• after 9 months * (corn, barley **, oats, rice, sunflower, soybeans, peas, beans, sorghum);
• after 18 months (vegetables, potatoes);
• after 24 months (sugar and fodder beets, rapeseed, buckwheat, millet, other crops).
* when the soil pH is higher than 6.2 and the amount of rainfalls more than 200 mm.
** if the amount of rainfalls is less than 200 mm and the pH is below 6.2, there is a risk of phytotoxicity, the negative consequences of which can be reduced by mechanical tillage to a depth of at least 15 cm

In the rainfalls are insufficient and of the surface layer of soil during the summer is in a dry state, could be inhibited winter wheat and winter rye. The use of pesticides of the ALS inhibitor group in crop rotation and subsequent culture (sulfonylureas and others) should be avoided. Imidazolinone products should not be used in the same field more than once every three years.

Product’s advantages

• system and ground action to destroy annual grasses and dicotyledonous weeds;

• one treatment for the entire growing season.
