Shogun: instructions for use and composition of the herbicide, dosage and analogues

Agricultural drug manufacturers produce a wide range of weed killers. The uniqueness of "Shogun" is a quick and effective impact on annual and perennial weeds. The drug is considered to be of low toxicity to humans and insects, but precautions should not be neglected when spraying areas.

Composition and release form

The product is produced as a concentrated emulsion. The herbicide is sold in 5-liter canisters. The active ingredient is propaquisafol (100 g/liter), which penetrates plants through any part.

How it works and what it is used for

The drug actively destroys weeds, affecting tissue cells (cell functioning is disturbed, the formation of fatty acids is inhibited). Leaves absorb "Shogun" within an hour, and plant growth stops after 1-2 days. Yellowing of the leaves is observed after a week, and the complete death of the weeds occurs after one and a half to two weeks. Suppressed weeds:

• chicken millet;
• oats;
• multicolor chaff;
• common broomstick;
• field foxtail;
• common wheatgrass;
• annual bluegrass;
• canary.

Grass weeds are sensitive to herbicide at different growth phases. Perennial species do not germinate the next year.

Instructions for using the "Shogun"

When processing the site, the type of weeds is taken into account. Annuals are sprayed in the period from 3 leaves to the formation of a bush. Perennial weeds are sprayed when the height of the bushes reaches 15-25 cm.Consumption rates of the drug l/ha

Before preparing the working fluid, the emulsion is shaken. The measured amount of the product is diluted in a separate container with 2-3 liters of water. Then the sprayer tank is half filled with water, the herbicide solution is added, and mixed.The tank is completely filled with water, stirring the solution.

Precautions

When spraying, you need to use personal protective equipment (put on gloves, special shoes, a respirator). It is forbidden to smoke, drink, eat food during the processing of the site. Free containers are not used for storing or transporting drinking water, food or household needs.

It is not allowed to spray with herbicide areas located near the fishery zone. Recommended boundaries - at least 2 km from the coast.

Possible harm

The drug is not considered phytotoxic if the spraying rates recommended by the manufacturer are followed. If the concentration of the emulsion is increased in the working solution, then chlorosis spots may appear on the leaves of useful crops during spraying. Visible damage to greenery disappears after a while, and there is no negative effect of "Shogun" on the subsequent growth of cultivated plants or on the quality of the crop.

At contact with open skin or mucous membranes, irritation of the skin or eyes is observed. It is required to wash the mucous membranes or skin with plenty of running water. It is strictly forbidden to take part in the spraying of pregnant women, since there is a possibility of a negative effect of the suspension on the fetus.

Compatibility with other herbicides

Preliminary testing of a mixture of Shogun emulsion and other herbicides is recommended, since a decrease in the effectiveness of drugs against dicotyledonous grass weeds is sometimes observed. In the absence of test results, interval application of herbicides is desirable (treatments are carried out after 3-4 days).

Terms and conditions of storage funds

The drug in its original packaging remains effective for 3 years. To store the herbicide allocate a place inaccessible to children. It is not allowed to use the allocated room for storing food, drinking water, animal feed.

Analogues of the drug

The advantage of the Shogun emulsion is its rapid absorption by the plant. As a herbicide of a similar type of action on weeds, you can use other means: "Agil", "Vidblok". It must be taken into account that Widblock contains only 25 g/l of the active ingredient propaquizafol.

Even a single application of herbicides allows you to control the growth of weeds on the site for several seasons. If the soil is treated in a timely manner, it is easy to prevent the germination of weeds. Preference is given to preparations intended for the destruction of many types of weeds.
