Overview
About this product
Venus is a herbicide with imazamox 40 g/L that is applied after emergence. Soybean is sprayed at the 1–3 trifoliate leaf stage at 0.75–1.0 l/ha, while grass weeds have 1–3 leaves and broadleaf weeds 2–4.
On sunflower the product is used only in hybrids resistant to imidazolinones, at the 4-leaf stage of the crop at 1.0–1.2 l/ha, at early stages of weed development. Imazamox is absorbed by the leaves and roots and also acts through the soil.
There is one treatment, and no more than once every 3 years on the same field.

| Mode of action | Imazamox belongs to the imidazolinones (HRAC group 2): it enters through the leaves and roots, moves to the growing points in the xylem and phloem and there inhibits acetolactate synthase, which is needed for the synthesis of valine, leucine and isoleucine. |
