Agil Herbicide

What is Adama Agil?

Adama Agil is a herbicide belonging to the aryloxyphenoxy propionates family. It is specifically designed for post-emergence control of both annual and perennial grasses. With its selective weed control capabilities, Agil is widely used in broad-leaf crops such as sugarbeet, oilseed rape, soybeans, sunflower, field crops, vegetables, fruit trees, vineyards, and forestry. By targeting grassy weeds, Agil helps safeguard the growth and productivity of your valuable crops.

How Does Adama Agil Work?

Adama Agil acts as a systemic herbicide, ensuring quick absorption by the leaves and efficient translocation to the growing points of both leaves and roots of the sprayed weeds. Its mode of action inhibits the growth and development of grassy weeds, leading to their gradual decline. Agil's effectiveness is maximized when applied during the 2-4 leaf stage of the weeds, while they are actively growing. Unlike some herbicides, Agil maintains its activity even if rainfall occurs within one hour of application.

Benefits of Using Agil Herbicide

Agil offers several advantages that make it an excellent choice for farmers and growers. Firstly, Agil demonstrates high selectivity, allowing it to control grassy weeds while maintaining the health and vigor of broad-leaf crops. This selectivity reduces the risk of crop damage and enhances the overall productivity of your fields. Additionally, Agil is safe for beneficial insects and mammals, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

 Agil's systemic action ensures comprehensive weed control, effectively managing annual and perennial grasses. This leads to improved crop quality and yield. Furthermore,  Agil's availability in different pack sizes (100ml, 250ml, 500ml, and 1 liter) allows flexibility in application, catering to diverse farming needs.
