Sprouting on cultivated fields often and ordinary meadow plants. All these weeds take away nutrients from the cereals. As a result, wheat, rye or oats reduce yields. To prevent this from happening, farmers are forced to use special drugs - herbicides. "Dianat" is one of the most effective tools of this group.
General description of the preparation
This herbicide is delivered to the market usually incanisters of 60 liters in the form of a water-soluble concentrate. He refers to the group of systemic postemergence selective drugs.

If necessary, it is also possible to add it to tank mixtures intended for plant protection. However, in this case, among other things, you usually have to perform compatibility tests. Best of all, this herbicide exhibits its properties at an air temperature of +10 ... +20 aboutFROM. Selectivity is very high. That is, it does not cause any harm to the crops themselves, growing on the field.
HMost of all, this drug is produced by registered producers in the Republic of Belarus. Herbicide "Dianat" however, it is also produced by some Russian, as well as Ukrainian companies. For example, very often the market meets "Dianat", released by the domestic company Basf. Worth this drug in any case quite expensive.

Also, this herbicide often treats fields with corn and oats. Very good "Dianat" helps, including from resistant to sulfonylureas and 2.4 D weeds. The rates of consumption of this drug depend on the specific culture and will be considered below.

Also it is not allowed to use this toolfor processing fields with weakened (for example, after disease or drought) crops. In addition, the instructions for use prohibit the use of "Dianat" on corn for two weeks before or after sprinkling cobs with organophosphorous insecticides. Another contraindication to use is too low (up to +6 aboutC) or high (above 25 aboutC) air temperature. Also, the herbicide can not be used on wet plants due to rain or dew. In this case, no effect from its use will be obtained. That is, the money invested in it will be wasted. Wet soil to use this drug is not an obstacle.
What plants destroy
Protect grain crops herbicide "Dianat" can both from the sunflower germinated from the sunflower, and from rape or peas. Also, this tool is very good at dealing with such weedspredecessors, like mustard, beet, soy. From meadow plants, this herbicide is destructive, for example, on a tenacious bedrock, a dioecious violet, grains, dissected geraniums, poppies. You can use "Dianat" and for the destruction of weeds of the cabbage family.
Instructions for the use of herbicide "Dianat"
To get the best effect, the drug"Dianat" is recommended to use immediately after sowing cereals. If this is impossible for some reason, it is acceptable to apply it a little later. However, when used in the spring, the field must be treated before the emergence of cereals. Also, sometimes the crops are sprayed with this herbicide in the summer. The timing in this case depends on the specific culture.
Actually the working solution of the preparation is prepared immediately before processing. Storage of it is not allowed. A working solution is prepared herbicide "Dianat" usually in plastic tanks. The latter are prefilled with water approximately 1/3. Further, the amount of the preparation necessary for this or that culture is added to the tanks. Then they top up the water. Spraying the crops with the resulting working solution is allowed both by conventional methods and by aviation.
Norms of consumption of herbicide "Dianat"
How much should be used for a culture, please see the table below.
Culture | Application rate | Recommended application period |
Wheat, winter and spring barley | 0.15-0.3 l / ha | In the tillering phase before entering the pipe |
Corn | 0.4-0.8 l / ha | In the phase of 3-5 leaves |
Process all these plants with herbicide "Dianat"Instructions for use allow no more than once per season. Conduct all sorts of manual operations on crops after using this tool can not be earlier than a week. Mechanical work is allowed after 3 days.
When using this tool simultaneously withother compatible herbicides, its activity in terms of the destruction of weeds is enhanced. This is due primarily to the emerging special synthetic effect.
How the drug works
To the pluses of gof the "Dianat" first of all, the speed of its action. The first results are already visible on day 2-3. Weeds usually begin to strongly distort the leaves and their petioles. This high efficiency of the composition is explained, first of all, by the fact that it very easily penetrates into tissues of weed plants and is almost instantaneously transported along their lengthse. After spraying, the active substance of the preparationabsorbed by leaves. If the soil on the field is moist, the solution begins to be absorbed by the roots as well. Moving through the tissues, the drug reaches the growth point of the weed and suppresses it. It is as a result of this that the plant begins to deform and eventually wither.
Weed when using "Dianata"approximately for 15 day. Not too sensitive to the drug plants can remain green after treatment with this herbicide. However, in this case they practically cease to develop and they can no longer compete with grain or corn.
Precautionary measures
Post-emergence herbicide "Diamant" ismeans quite aggressive and, if used incorrectly, can harm the human body in particular. The rules for its application should be as follows:
You can prepare the solution only in a specially designated place for this purpose;
- processing is carried out using protective equipment;
After finishing the treatment, the remaining solution should be poured;
the tank itself should be thoroughly rinsed with water.
At the final stage the tanks are additionallytreated with ammonia, diluted in the proportion of 1 liter per 100 liters of water. To sustain the resulting liquid in the containers should be approximately 15 minutes. Then the tanks are washed again with water. </ span </ p>
