Safron

With its high concentration of the active ingredient SULFOSULFURON 75 WDG, SAFRON is designed specifically as an early post-emergence herbicide to effectively manage the weed Phalaris minor in wheat fields. Additionally, it addresses other broadleaf weeds, including Chenopodium album and Melilotus alba, contributing to its comprehensive weed control capabilities. This herbicide is most effective when used during the early growth stages of wheat, specifically when the plants have reached the two to four leaf stages. This ensures that the herbicide is maximally effective, providing farmers with a critical tool for maintaining crop health and productivity. By managing weed populations early, SAFRON helps preserve the wheat’s environment, allowing for better growth conditions and contributing to the overall success of the cultivation process.
