SEGMENTUM

Physico-chemical properties: Segmentum is a liquid product, formulated as a concentrated suspension, yellow in color, with an aromatic odor. Non-flammable, non-explosive, non-oxidizing.

Mode of action: It is a herbicide with the active substance aclonifen, which acts on weeds by inhibiting two enzymes involved in the synthesis of chlorophyll and carotenoids. The uptake of the active substance is via coleoptile, hypocotyl, cotyledons and leaves when the weeds are emerged at the time of application. The efficacy of the active substance is ensured by the persistence of the product, which varies between 1.5 - 2.5 months, depending on climatic conditions and soil type.

Instructions for use:May be applied preemergent or early postemergent, once per season. Do not apply treatment during very hot days with strong sun, but only in the morning after dew-drying of plants, or in the evening. Do not treat if negative temperatures are expected at night. Avoid spreading the solution on neighboring crops during treatment. Do not herbicide if wind speed exceeds 5 m/ s to avoid drift of solution onto neighboring crops.
