Descriere produs
Metolat
Metolat is an adjuvant (SAS – agricultural surfactant) used to enhance the effectiveness of herbicide, fungicide, and other crop protection treatments. Metolat reduces the surface tension of solutions, improves droplet coverage on leaves, and ensures better penetration of active ingredients into plant tissues.
Packaging: 10 L
Description and Mode of Action
Metolat acts as a surface adjuvant, improving wetting and adhesion of spray solutions on leaves. It is primarily used with herbicides for weed control but can also be applied with other products to increase treatment efficiency.
Examples of Recommended Use
| Crop / Application | Purpose | Example Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Herbicide + Metolat | Control of annual and perennial grass weeds | 1.0–2.5 L/ha Metolat mixed with herbicides according to label instructions |
| Stratos Ultra + Metolat | Herbicide for sugar beet, sunflower, soybean, rapeseed, corn | 1.0–2.5 L/ha Metolat mixed with Stratos Ultra |
| Onion | Herbicide + adjuvant for weed control | 0.8–1.0 L/ha Metolat with specific herbicides |
| Vegetables (cabbage, melon, carrot, tomato) | Herbicide + Metolat in mixture | 0.8–2.3 L/ha Metolat with recommended herbicides |
*Values in the table are indicative and depend on the herbicide or fungicide used, as well as the specific product label instructions.*
