Instructions for use of Grenery herbicide, application rates and analogues

Herbicide "Grenery" is a universal composition with a systemic effect. Designed to eradicate perennial and annual dicotyledonous plants. It is actively used in agriculture, for example, to remove weeds near grain crops. But the composition of the herbicide “Grenery” is also used by ordinary summer residents for domestic purposes.

Composition, purpose and release form of the drug "Grenery"

Herbicide "Grenery" is a composition in which the main component is sulfonylurea. The active substance is tribeuron-methyl. It contains 750 grams in one kilogram of product. The form of the drug is aqueous granules that are dispersed in nature. It belongs to the group of systemic pesticides; its granules penetrate into plants in a systemic manner. Since the composition is aimed at combating specific organisms, the nature of its effect on them is called selective.

The herbicide "Grenery" is intended for large-scale or private agriculture. The active substance penetrates the plant tissue, destroying them. Designed to combat perennial and annual plants that belong to the dicotyledonous class. These are the ones that are most often found in fields near grain crops, preventing them from growing correctly and on a large scale.

The herbicide is available in plastic bottles. Their volume is 250 grams. One jar will contain 0.75 percent of the active ingredient, the rest is prepared water and additional components.

Principle of operation

The herbicide acts systemically. When sprayed, it penetrates through the leaves of plants into other systems. However, the death of weeds is not immediately observed. First, exhaustion, dryness, yellowing and other characteristic signs are observed. The plant dies completely only in the 2nd or even 3rd week. The speed of impact depends on a number of factors, including:

• air humidity;
• temperature conditions;
• type of plant and its natural features;
• phases of weed development (adults are not so sensitive to the effects of poison).

Cereal crops are tolerant to the drug.It is quickly metabolized in barley and wheat, so the herbicide can be called safe for humans.

Experts do not note phytotoxicity.

Resistance occurs with prolonged use. Therefore, summer residents need to combine the elimination of weeds with this herbicide with others (for example, those with a different mode of action, active substance and other typical characteristics).

Benefits of using the product

Herbicide "Grenery" has many advantages, which makes it popular among summer residents. These include:

• relatively low consumption of funds;
• convenient release form;
• effective elimination of all types of dicotyledonous weeds;
• low output cost;
• There is no direct dependence when used on temperature indicators or precipitation rates.

The herbicide will be most effective when applied at the initial stage of weed growth. Although it gives results if used for adult organisms. But in this case, the exposure time will be about 2-3 weeks.

Herbicide consumption rate

There are certain standards for the consumption of the product. Failure to do so risks a lack of effectiveness or the fact that some weeds will remain. In particular, you need to take:

• from 0.015 to 0.020 kg per hectare for treating wheat, barley, oats, spring weeds resistant to 2.4 D and 2 M 4X;
• from 0.015 to 0.020 for winter crops, wheat, oats and barley to combat annual and biennial weeds, as well as field thistle.

In the first case, spraying with herbicides is carried out using the following technology: the first phase, when up to three leaves are present, the second phase, during the end of early development. In this case, you will need at least 200 liters of herbicide per hectare.In the second case, spraying is carried out in the tillering phase. Consumption can reach 300 liters per hectare.

Preparation of working solution

The solution is made before use; it cannot be stored. First, measure out the required amount of the drug depending on the purpose of treatment and the number of hectares. The bucket is filled a quarter full with water, the herbicide is added, and topped up until the final volume is obtained. The sprayer is filled 50 percent with liquid, and a toxic composition is poured in. Mixing must be carried out with a special mixer.

How to use the ready-made mixture?

The instructions for use suggest that the product will only be sprayed. For this, special devices are used.

After refueling, the equipment and the platform, containers in which the composition was mixed are carefully disinfected.

The mixture is used in optimal temperature conditions, preferably early in the morning or late in the evening. Of course, no precipitation should be expected.

Safety precautions when working with the drug

The product is not safe for humans, so you need to follow certain safety rules when working with it.

When using, wear a special mask, and protect the body with a gown. Gloves are put on your hands. All products used during spraying are disinfected.

Hazard class for humans - third (low-hazard). The same indicator for bees. It is important to follow safety rules.

Compatibility with other substances

There is a high degree of compatibility with various groups of drugs. In particular, can be used in conjunction with:

• 2.4 - D;
• 2M - 4X;
• diclofop-methyl;
• clopyralide.
