Lontrel 300 EC, 1 litre

Lontrel 300 EC, 1 litre is a professional systemic herbicide, post-emergent, used in combating dicotyledonous weeds. Lontrel belongs to Group 1 herbicides, together with 2,4 - D, MCPA, dicamba, picloram, triclopyr, and fluroxypyr which are disruptive to the growth of plant cells. This unique mode of action makes the Lontrel 300 EC the ideal herbicide for use in control strategies and resistance against broad-leaved weeds.

Benefits:
- Fast action
- Very effective against perennial weeds with deep roots such as thistles
- Group I herbicide
- Broad spectrum herbicides

Action mode:
- After the herbicide is applied it is absorbed very quickly and translocated throughout the plant, including at the root level, and accumulates in areas with increased metabolic activity. This translocation capacity makes Lontrel highly effective against perennial weeds with deep roots like thistles. The weeds concerned by this herbicide do not die immediately, but their growth is stopped.
- Once translocated in all weed regions, clopyralid interrupts water absorption, nutrients, and plant metabolism. The leaves dry out and lose their functional properties, and eventually the plant dies, including the roots of depth.

Methods of application:
- Select a rate appropriate to weed size.
- Do not use it on weeds which may be stressed (inactive growth) because of prolonged periods of extreme heat or cold, moisture stress (water logging or drought) or previous herbicide treatment as reduced levels of control may result.
- Do not use more than one application per crop.

Compatibility:
- compatible with atrazine and simazine for use in triazine tolerant canola
- Compatible with broadleaf herbicides, grass herbicides on broadleaf crops and cereals crops, adjuvants

Recommendations:

This translocation capacity makes Lontrel highly effective against perennial weeds with deep roots like thistles.

- Once translocated in all weed regions, clopyralid interrupts water absorption, nutrients, and plant metabolism. The leaves dry out and lose their functional properties, and eventually the plant dies, including the roots of depth.
- Rinse water should be discharged onto a designated disposal area or, if this is unavailable, onto unused land away from desirable plants and water courses.
- Perform partial cleaning before spraying other labelled or tolerant crops.
- Perform complete cleaning before spraying crops that are susceptible to residues of Lontrel.
