Product information
A highly flexible product Callisto 480 SC, 1 litre is a professional herbicide that combats annual broadleaf weeds including resistant species. It uses both pre and post-emergent modes of action to assure safety for various crops. The absorption process takes place in foliage from where it translocates quickly to weeds growing points. Its powerful active substance, Mesotrione is an organic compound that inhibits development of a certain enzyme, causing intruders to cease. The beneficial selective characteristic provides high yield due to its property of not causing damage to the non-targeted species. Callisto 480 SC, 1 litre integrates excellent residual control and can be used on all soil types.
