Application achieves several goals - uniform ripening of seeds, reducing their moisture content. The drug prevents the spread of diseases on cultivated crops.

Diquat decomposes quickly in plant tissues, the agro-product can be used on plants grown for seed production and on plants of food value.

Solution consumption -200-300 l/ha, when spraying from aircraft - 50-100 l/ha. Peas are sprayed 10 days before harvest, when the grain reaches the stage of biological ripeness. Consumption -200-300 l/ha. Rapeseed is sprayed when the seeds in the pods turn brown. Consumption -200-300 l/ha. Waiting period - 10 days, single processing.
