Improve the efficiency of herbicides!

The use of zinc on sugar beets is not know at all, but can nevertheless be very interesting, certainly if applied in combination with the herbicides of the sulfonylurea family. It has been observed that certain herbicides, especially those of the sulfonylurea family influence the root system significantly, on certain crops. The effect is more important on young plants compared to more developed plants.
It is actually in these younger plants that zinc plays a very important and active role for the development of the crops. Zinc influences and stimulates the endogenous production of growth hormones, extremely important during the initial phases of the crop development.
The deficiency induced by the herbicide application can be compensated by adding Chelal® Zn to the herbicide treatment. The zinc applied with Chelal® Zn is completely chelated and therefore very stable and plant available.
Also in other crops, such as mais, soja, wheat, barley, we observe an positive effect of the mixture of Chelal Zn with the herbicide.
