Instructions for use and mechanism of action of the herbicide Bomb

The broad-spectrum herbicide “Bomb” is aimed at destroying particularly resistant weeds, such as thistle, hogweed, thistle, and tenacious bedstraw. The unique formula of the drug was developed in Russia, the main active ingredients are tribenuron-methyl and florasulam. The domestic pesticide is irreplaceable and effective in controlling weeds in fields with grain crops.

Composition and release form of the product

The domestic drug is produced in original binary packaging, in the form of water-dispersible granules, which must be mixed and dissolved before use. There are two main active ingredients - tribenuron-methyl and florasulam.

Mechanism and spectrum of action of the herbicide

“Bomb” refers to selective spectrum pesticides. It affects mainly the green part of the plant, disrupting metabolic processes and protein synthesis in the body, and is used only in the post-emergence period.

The greatest effectiveness of the product was achieved in the fight against dicotyledonous weeds, thistle, and tenacious bedstraw. Used in all types of crop rotations.

Rate and symptoms of exposure

Within a few hours after spraying, the poison penetrates completely into the plant, disrupting metabolic processes and stopping the growth of the weed. The leaf blades become covered with white-brown spots, become thinner, and the growing point dies. After 2-3 weeks the weed dies.

To achieve the maximum effect from the treatment, you must follow the instructions and rules for mixing the working solution. With high humidity or prolonged drought, night frosts, the effect of the drug slows down. The optimal ambient temperature at the time of spraying is from +10 ⁰From to +25 ⁰WITH.

Possibility of resistance

Resistance when using the Bomba herbicide was observed extremely rarely. The unique binary formula allows us to minimize the likelihood of weeds becoming “accustomed” to the pesticide. Tribenuron-methyl and florasulam belong to different chemical classes.

Consumption rates for different plants

The amount of the drug is determined according to the instructions for the herbicide and depends on the type and phase of the growing season of the plants being eradicated.If the weeds have overgrown, the field is heavily weeded, or perennial weeds predominate in the crops, the concentration of “Bombs” is increased.

To enhance the herbicidal effect, the surfactant “Adju” is added to the working mixture. This technique is used in the fight against thistle and tenacious bedstraw. The average consumption rate of the drug is 25 grams per hectare.

The “bomb” is permitted and is often used for aerial spraying of fields and agricultural crops.

How to properly prepare the working mixture and how to use it?

The drug is mixed immediately before use. For convenience, it is recommended to create a stock solution. The tank for the pesticide solution is filled halfway with clean water at room temperature, the mother solution is poured in and stirred thoroughly. Next, the amount of water is increased to the required level.

Important! The Adju surfactant is added to the working solution after the herbicide is completely mixed. This will prevent the formation of foam.

Rules for using the working mixture:

• The substance is applied to the green part of the plant.
• The optimal vegetative maturity of the weed is 3-4 leaves.
• During aviation processing, the application rates and concentrations of the drug are changed according to the instructions.
• The use of the drug in coastal areas of water bodies is prohibited.
• In unfavorable weather conditions: heavy rains, frosts, drought, it is recommended to postpone treatment.

The drug can be used in conjunction with fungicides. It is not addictive for most weeds. Before use, read the instructions for use.

Safety precautions when working with the drug

Herbicide "Bomb" belongs to the 3rd class of danger to people. The drug is extremely dangerous for the inhabitants of reservoirs and bees. During spraying and when applying the working solution, you must wear gloves, a protective suit, a headscarf and a respirator.It is unacceptable for toxic chemicals to enter the respiratory system and onto human skin.

If there are apiaries near the treated area, it is necessary to warn the beekeepers 5 days before treatment.

It is recommended to treat fields with the Bomba herbicide in calm weather.

Degree of toxicity of the product

The drug “Bomb” is toxic; it is important to follow safety precautions when working with the toxic chemical. If the herbicide gets into a body of water, there is a high risk of poisoning fish and other river inhabitants and plants.

If the working solution gets on the skin or into the respiratory system, a person may experience a severe allergic reaction or poisoning.

It is not recommended to use the drug on private plots.

Compatibility with other drugs

The domestic herbicide is suitable for combined use with other pesticides and is compatible with amine salt and dicamba. Experienced agronomists practice the combined use of “Bomba” with the herbicide “Ballerina” or “Demeter”.

The use of “Bombs” with organophosphorus pesticides is unacceptable.

How to store?

The drug is stored in a special room for storing pesticides. The combined storage of the “Bomb” with food, feed, and drinking water is strictly prohibited.

It is important to limit the access of children and persons not familiar with the rules for using pesticides to a warehouse with pesticides. The prepared solution cannot be stored for long periods of time; the mixture is used immediately after preparation.

The shelf life of the herbicide in sealed original packaging is 3 years. Optimal storage temperature - +15 ⁰C — +18 ⁰WITH.

Are there any analogues?

Analogues of the drug based on active ingredients include:

• "Tandem";
• "Grand status"

“Bomb” is a highly effective herbicide that is not addictive to weeds due to its binary formula. When working with a pesticide, it is important to understand that the main purpose of the drug is agricultural; for the purposes of personal gardening, it is recommended to use less toxic herbicides.
