Orkan 350 SL Synthos Agro is a non-selective herbicide for use in fruit crops that is effective against both monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous weeds. It contains two active substances: MCPA (90 g/l) and Glyphosate (260 g/l), thereby increasing the efficacy of the product. The herbicide acts systemically, is absorbed through the leaves and transported to the roots, inhibiting plant growth. The product achieves optimum efficacy during the intensive growth phase of weeds. It is recommended for use in pome and stone fruit orchards and, to a limited extent, in the cultivation of sour and sweet cherries. It is effective at an application rate of 5–8 l/ha against various weed species, although the sensitivity of individual species may vary. The waiting period before entering the treated area is until the spray liquid has completely dried, while the waiting period for apples is 7 days.

🌿 Orkan – effective against weeds in fruit crops
The Orkan product contains two active substances. The active substance glyphosate inhibits the synthesis in plants of proteins necessary for plant growth. MCPA inhibits the action of plant hormones responsible for cell division. This leads to deformities of leaves and stems, growth inhibition and stunting of the plants, followed by chlorosis, necrosis and drying out of the plants.
Orkan 350 SL is absorbed through the leaves and then rapidly transported to the roots of the weeds. It is most effective when applied during the weeds' intensive growth phase. The first visible signs of its effect on the weeds appear 7–14 days after treatment. The weeds die off after approximately 30 days. High temperatures and humidity, as well as intense sunlight, accelerate the product's effect.
