Description

ACTION OF RAPEX 500 SC:

Rapex 500 SC is a selective herbicide created for effective control of annual monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds in winter oilseed rape cultivation. This innovative concentrate, water-soluble, can be applied both to the soil and foliarly, providing application flexibility. The herbicide acts systemically, penetrating weeds through the roots and hypocotyl, effectively inhibiting their germination. As a result, the field shows no weeds or a significant reduction in their growth, leading to gradual die-off. The best results in weed control are achieved by applying Rapex 500 SC before weed emergence or at the early growth stage, up to the appearance of the first pair of leaves.

Advantages of using Rapex 500 SC:

- Application flexibility: Possibility of both soil and foliar application.

- Effectiveness: Proven action against a wide spectrum of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds.

- Systemic action: The herbicide penetrates the plant through roots and hypocotyl, effectively inhibiting its development.

- Convenient form: Water-soluble concentrate, easy to prepare and apply.

- Wide application: Ideal for protecting winter oilseed rape crops.
