About this product
Literon — a soil pre-emergence herbicide in the form of an emulsifiable concentrate (EC) with an S-metolachlor content of 960 g/l, which belongs to the chemical group of the chloroacetamides (HRAC 15). It controls annual grass and some dicotyledonous weeds in row crops such as sunflower, maize, soybean and sugar beet. The product is applied to the soil before the emergence of the crop and the weeds; the active substance is absorbed by the roots of the seedlings, stops cell division and provides a long protective period.
