Main advantages
About this product
KIDEKA — a systemic post-emergence herbicide with soil action to combat dicotyledonous weeds in crops of maize. Based on mesotrione (100 g/l) in the form of a suspension concentrate with a specially selected system of surfactants. It stops the synthesis of carotenoids, causing bleaching and the death of the weeds, in particular common milkweed and sunflower volunteers resistant to ALS inhibitors. It is absorbed through the leaves and roots and curbs subsequent waves of weeds. It is applied on maize at the 2–8 leaf stage (BBCH 12–18) at a rate of 0,5–1,5 l/ha.
