Description
TAURUS 05 EC ACTION:
Taurus 05 EC is a selective herbicide with systemic action. The product is intended for foliar application - the active substance is rapidly absorbed by the leaves and then translocated to the roots and rhizomes, causing inhibition of growth and development. The first symptoms of the product's action, i.e. yellowing followed by drying of the youngest leaves, are visible already 7 days after treatment. The full herbicidal effect is visible after about 3 weeks, depending on weather conditions.
Intensive weed growth, warm weather, and sufficiently moist soil accelerate the product's action. Cool weather and drought delay the effect but do not reduce its efficacy. Rainfall occurring 3 hours after treatment does not affect the product's action. Couch grass is most sensitive at the 4-6 true leaf stage.
TAURUS 05 EC ACTIVE SUBSTANCE CONTENT:
chizalofop-P-ethyl (a compound from the aryloxyphenoxypropionic acid derivatives group) – 50 g/l (5.3%)
