Fantasia 800 EC (prosulfocarb) Albaugh - herbicide
Fantasia 800 EC is a selective systemic herbicide containing prosulfocarb (800 g/l), designed for effective control of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds.
Description
Fantasia 800 EC – effective soil-applied and foliar herbicide
Fantasia 800 EC is a herbicide in the form of a concentrate for preparing an aqueous emulsion (EC), intended for use by professional users. The product acts selectively and systemically, providing effective control of weeds already at an early stage of their development.
The product contains the active substance prosulfocarb (800 g/l), belonging to the carbamate group (HRAC 15), which blocks the synthesis of long-chain fatty acids.
Mode of action
Fantasia 800 EC mainly acts on weeds at the germination and early emergence stages. The active substance inhibits seedling development, causing their deformation and rapid death.
The product is absorbed by weeds very quickly – within about one hour after application, and rainfall after this time does not reduce its effectiveness.
Spectrum of controlled weeds
Fantasia 800 EC effectively controls a wide spectrum of annual weeds:
- loose silky-bent
- common lambsquarters
- chickweed
- cleavers
- speedwells
The highest effectiveness is achieved when applied to weeds at the germination or early growth stage.
Application
The product is used in many agricultural crops:
- winter cereals (wheat, barley, triticale, rye)
- potato
- vegetables (onion, carrot, parsley, celery, leek, garlic)
- leguminous crops (faba bean, pea, lupin, soybean, flax)
- ornamental plants
Use in minor crops
Fantasia 800 EC can also be used in many minor crops, including:
- common millet, spring rye
- carrot, parsley, parsnip
- celery, horseradish
- sunflower, hemp, lentil
Recommendations for use
The product achieves the highest effectiveness in moist soil conditions and when controlling weeds at the germination and early emergence stages.
The treatment should be applied evenly, ensuring good coverage of the soil and young weeds with the spray liquid.
Benefits of using Fantasia 800 EC
- wide spectrum of controlled weeds
- action already at the germination stage
- effectiveness independent of subsequent rainfall
- versatile use in many crops
- support for anti-resistance programmes
Notes
The product should be used according to the label and integrated plant protection principles. The best results are obtained when applied to moist soil and with limited weed development.
