Herbicide Ballet: instructions for use, composition and form of release, analogues

Weeds do not leave crops unattended, damaging crops. Weeds are especially dangerous in cold, rainy weather. Absorbing nutrients from the soil, weeds feel great when cultivated plants get sick and die. The herbicide Ballet comes to the rescue, distinguished by its composition and properties. Let's take a closer look at the characteristics and methods of using the drug.

Composition and release form of the product

1 liter of herbicide contains two active ingredients:

• acid (2,4-D) in the form of low volatile esters C7-C9 in the amount of 550 grams;
• florasulam herbicide, in the amount of 7.4 grams.

Herbicide Ballet is a productive tool. Destroys dicotyledonous weeds that live in crops of wheat and spring barley, corn, millet, sorghum.

Pros and cons

Among the benefits, the following indicators stand out:

• low cost per hectare;
• wide field of activity;
• high-speed response. Weeds stop growing a day after spraying with the drug, regardless of the weather;
• eradicate the following weeds: bindweed, milkweed, chamomile, molokan and others;
• no restrictions on crop rotation;
• special recipe;
• activity and high efficiency in the fight against weeds, which are poorly destroyed, resistant to herbicides 2,4-D, MCPA and others;
• reducing the risk of developing resistance in weeds to infections, poisons, parasites.

Serious flaws in the herbicide were not found. But there are slight deviations from the norm:

• drug has no effect on weeds during flowering;
• has a second hazard class;
• does not apply to fruit and vegetable and fruit plants;
• poorly effective drug in the fight against dwarf weeds.

How does it work?

The herbicide penetrates the weed (usually through the leaves) and, passing through the stems, leaves and roots, is concentrated in them. Weed growth is disturbed, tissues grow, cells are deformed. The movement of nutrients and photosynthesis products slows down. As a result, the weed plant dies.

Indications for use

Herbicides are used as a last resort when weeding is not successful.

Consumption rates

When processing land with the herbicide Ballet, the characteristics of the area are taken into account. Where cereal crops are planted with overseeding of legumes, processing is excluded. The same goes for areas with broadleaf plants.

It is necessary to observe the temperature regime. The recommended air temperature on the day of processing is from 8 to 25 °C. The best result is achieved when spraying annual specimens 5-10 cm high, as well as perennials in the phase of a leaf rosette.

Usually, 0.3 liters of the drug are consumed per 1 hectare. If there is a large amount of weed grass on the site, the dose is increased to 0.5 liters.

Attention! Ballet herbicide manufacturers guarantee site protection from the day of spraying until the next wave of weeds.

Preparation of working solution

The herbicide is sold in the form of an emulsion, but the area is treated with a solution that is prepared immediately before work. For 1 hectare of land, 200-300 liters of the product are required. A little water is poured into the tank, then Ballet is added according to the norms, which is a guarantee of success. The contents of the tank are mixed. Next, the volume is brought to normal. The working solution is ready. Start spraying.

Important! When working with the prepared solution, the contents of the tank need constant stirring.

Instructions for the use of herbicide Ballet

Each package has a user manual, the implementation of which will ensure good performance. It is recommended to prepare 200-300 liters of spray solution containing 0.3-0.5 liters of herbicide. This liquid is enough for 1 hectare.

Sorghum

Herbicide is used when the weeds are in the early stages of growth and when 3-6 leaves of the crop appear.

For corn

Spraying is carried out in the early phases of weed growth and the appearance of 4-5 leaves on the plant.

Spring barley, winter and spring wheat

Protection against weeds is carried out at the initial stages of weed growth and at the tillering stage of wheat.

On millet

Spraying is carried out in the early phases of growth and tillering of the crop.

Waiting time and efficiency

The protective effect lasts 30 days, regardless of the weather. The speed of impact on annual plants - a day, perennials - up to 2 days. Four days after treatment, the following signs of the effect of the Ballet drug are observed:

• weed color change;
• twisting foliage;
• shrinking grass;
• reduction and shortening of internodes.

Complete extinction of weeds occurs 10-20 days after spraying.

Possibility of resistance

A selective agent with two active ingredients in the formula reduces the likelihood of resistance.

Compatibility with other products

Ballet is compatible with fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, growth regulators that are used on cereals.
