Product information
Mode of action: systemic
Mistral 240 SC is a systemic, post-emergence sulfonylurea herbicide for corn crops. Shortly after treatment, the active substance nicosulfuron is absorbed by the leaves and translocated into xylem and phloem to the meristematic tissues, causing inhibition of growth, discoloration, necrosis, and finally the death of the target plants. Inhibits ALS enzyme activity (acetolactate synthase), resulting in disruption of cell division. Mistral 240 SC has a broad spectrum of action doubled by a long lasting effect on weeds (28 - 30 days).
Recommendations: It is recommended to apply the herbicide in 4-6 leaf corn, 2-4 leaf weeds per year or 15-20 cm rhizomes. It can be mixed with phytosanitary products containing dicamba, bromoxynil, sulcotrione, thifensulfuron, rimsulfuron, terbuthylazine.
It is not recommended to mix the herbicide with bentazone, 2,4 D or organophosphorus insecticides that can create phytotoxicity in advance, thus weakening maize tolerance after the application of nicosulfuron. (Treatment with the previously mentioned incompatible substances will be done 7 days before or 3 days after the application of the herbicide Mistral 240 SC).
