Composition and formulation
The drug is produced in a minimum volume of 5 liters in the form of a concentrated product. 13 liters of clopyralid, 400 g of piclorama, 85 g of aminopyralide are contained in 5 liters of the product.
Drug benefits
Among the advantages of the considered funds are:
- reliable protection;
- the control function of weeds, which are problematic and are in hard-to-reach places;
- not phytotoxicity;
- high effect of the application, if there is insufficient soil moisture;
- excellent penetrating power;
- systematic action.
Herbicides also include Esteron, Grims, Agritox, Axial, Euro-lighting, Ovsyugen Super, Corsair, Dialen Super, Hermes, Caribou, Cowboy, "Fabian", "Pivot", "Eraser Extra".
Operating principle
"Galera" is a post-harvest herbicide containing 3 active ingredients that affect the general-growth changes that occur in plants. The main active components are synthesized from natural hormones and are synthetic, they are obtained from plants.
When they are used as a herbicide, the process of blocking natural weed hormones occurs, which leads to disruptions in the growth and development process, and ultimately the weed dies. The components of the drug can quickly penetrate to the root system of plants, which allows you to fight with root-weed weeds, for example, sow thistle.
Time, method of application and consumption
"Galera" is a specific herbicide that requires care in use, so consider the instructions for use and the dosage of the drug.
In order to obtain a highly dispersed solution, 50% of the necessary liquid is poured into the sprayer, then the calculated amount of concentrated product is added and mixed vigorously for 20 seconds. Next, stirring actively, pour the second half of the liquid into the tank.
Important! In order not to block the sprayer, during the work should choose high-quality water.The average consumption of the funds received is 250 l / ha.
This herbicide is suitable for the treatment of winter and spring varieties of rapeseed, as well as mustard. In order to prepare the tool, you will need 200-300 ml of concentrate per 1 ha. Processing of weeds is carried out in the phase of appearance of 4 leaves on the weeds before the formation of buds.
Herbicide "Galera" can be used to remove weeds in the fields of cabbage, carrots, corn, cereals.
When the solution is prepared, it must be used immediately or within two hours after preparation. After all the areas have been treated, it is necessary to pour the remaining liquid from the tank and wash it well.
It is important to observe safety precautions when using the solution, to ensure that it does not get on the skin and the areas around the eyes. During the period of processing, use such clothes so that it covers all skin on the body, gloves and goggles.
It is forbidden to eat and drink during the spraying process. The optimum air temperature for using the solution is from +8 to +25 degrees. It is not recommended to use the tool if frost is planned.
To obtain the maximum effect of using the product, it is necessary to observe uniformity when spraying, so that the product gets on all parts of the plant.
In order to ensure high-quality processing, it is advised to use a slit-type sprayer, which will ensure maximum spraying efficiency.
Action speed
The use of "Galera" allows you to control weeds that are considered susceptible to herbicides, and if they emerged during the spraying period. The first effect of use can be seen on the following day after the manipulation.
The final death of weeds will occur 2.5 or 3 weeks after treatment.
Important! The rate of destruction and the effectiveness of spraying depends on the type of weed and the stage at which its development is located. Weather conditions affect the extinction rate of weeds.The product is resistant to precipitation. If the treatment is carried out and after 1 hour precipitation falls, the product will not be washed off and will continue active action. Adverse weather events may slightly slow down the speed of response of the herbicide, but they will not affect the final result.
Compatibility with other drugs
"Gallera" is allowed to combine with different herbicides designed to combat cereal weeds. It is also effective in use with herbicidal agents in the fight against annuals of two-weed vegetation that are resistant to the agent in question.
It is not recommended to use this tool in the spring in conjunction with drugs that regulate the growth of cultivated plants. If you plan to mix drugs together, then you should do it in small proportions in a separate container, according to the instructions on the drugs.
Storage conditions
Store the purchased herbicide in a closed container should be 2 years from the date of manufacture. The place is better to choose dark and cool, up to +25 degrees. An important condition for storage is considered to be good protection from direct sunlight on the bottle of concentrate.
The use of a herbicide after the expiration date is strictly prohibited.
Did you know? There are facts of the use of herbicides in the war. An example is Agent Orange, which was used by the United States during the Vietnam War.Thus, the “Galera” herbicide is an effective tool in weed control. The main thing - to follow the recommendations for the preparation of the solution and follow all the rules of spraying to obtain the maximum result.
