Apples

Features

SKOFFEL 200 SUPER is a bipyridylium herbicide and belongs to HRAC group D.
Non-selective, contact herbicide which is rapidly absorbed by foliage, scorching the above-soil, green plant parts.
Well-suited to control erosion due to roots of weeds remaining in tact.
Fast-acting product, damaging cell membranes and cytoplasm, resulting in rapid necrosis of weeds.
Provides a broad spectrum, non-selective alternative to glyphosate.
Essential management tool in reducing or slowing down the development of glyphosate resistant weeds.
Effective control of winter and summer grasses.
No residual action as it is rapidly inactivated on contact with soil.

Do's & Don'ts

For optimal performance add SUMMIT SUPER (0.3%) or SUMMIT (0.5%) and VILLA 51 (0.1%).
Do not spray buds or green parts of any crop.
Avoid spraying on windy days to prevent drift onto green plant tissue of adjacent crops.
Do not use application equipment or spray pressures which cause a fine spray mist.
Ground application: Apply in at least 200 l of water per ha, using a high volume and high dose rate for
dense weed stands.
Apply when weeds are 10-15 cm high as a directed spray.

Usage Rate

Apply 2.5-5 l/ha as necessary from spring onwards.
Mix with Simazine for residual effect.

Potatoes

Features

SKOFFEL® 200 SUPER is a non-selective contact herbicide (HRAC herbicide group code D).
SKOFFEL® 200 SUPER functions as a desiccant in potatoes (aimed at total haulm destruction).
SKOFFEL® 200 SUPER has no residual action as it is inactivated rapidly on contact with the soil (DT50 ranged between 0.4 and 21 days).
Extremely fast onset after application.
Limits the development of resistance.
Reduces the time from crop maturity to harvest; reduces the spread of late season pests and diseases aids the planning and control of harvest timing and helps maintain crop quality during storage.
The potential risk to leach into ground water is negligible.
Rapid uptake by green plant parts (30 minutes after application), thus rainfast 30 minutes after application.

Do's & Don'ts

Do not apply if haulms show signs of wilting, as tuber damage may occur.
Spray only if at least 5 hours sunshine is expected.
Ensure good even coverage on the foliage before spraying.
Do not use muddy water.
Avoid application equipment which results in formation of fine spray mist, i.e. mist blowers.
Avoid drift onto adjacent crops, as green plant tissue will be damaged by the spray. (Do not spray buds or green parts of any crop).

Usage Rate

Apply 2.5 - 5.0 l/ha SKOFFEL® 200 SUPER (Use 200 – 500 l water per hectare)
NB Add SUMMIT SUPER at 0.3 % (300 ml in 100 l spray mixture) or VILLA 51 at 0.05 %
(50 ml in 100 spray mixture) of the spray solution.
