Pre-emergent herbicides allow for safe treatment before planting crops. This allows for high-dose, soil-degradable sprays. This allows for the destruction of even the most persistent and persistent weeds without harming the crop, regardless of the specific species. Aristocrat, a systemic herbicide, is one such universal product.

Composition and existing forms of release

The herbicide "Aristocrat" is produced as an aqueous solution. The active ingredient is the organophosphorus compound glyphosate (isopropylamine salt). It is packaged in 10-liter canisters.

Advantages of herbicide

Before purchasing a product, find out its beneficial properties. The herbicide "Aristocrat" is labeled as:

a universal product suitable for use on virtually all crops and to control any weeds;
a substance that destroys harmful plants along with their roots and rhizomes, even perennial ones, applicable at both high and low soil and air temperatures;
a pesticide that does not interfere with the developed crop rotation scheme.

Method of influence

The herbicide "Aristocrat" penetrates weed tissue. It inhibits an enzyme essential for the synthesis of certain vital amino acids. To eliminate harmful plants, they are sprayed during the development of their above-ground organs. Once the herbicide reaches the soil, it loses its potency. Therefore, its effect does not extend to the next wave of weeds. This also guarantees the safety of any crops during germination in areas treated with the herbicide "Aristocrat."

Signs of pesticide effects on weeds are visible within the first week after spraying. Perennials begin to die within 7-10 days. Typically, the field remains clear for a month after application.

Calculation of consumption

To spray an area of 1 hectare, you will need 100-200 liters of working solution.

The object being processed	Weeds	Rate of herbicide "Aristocrat", l/ha	Spraying time
Couples	Annual cereals and dicotyledons	1.5-4	Active growth of vegetative mass.
Couples	Perennial cereals and dicotyledons	4-6	Active growth of vegetative mass.
A field before sowing or planting any crop	Annual cereals and dicotyledons	1.5-4	The above-ground parts of weeds develop before frosts in the fall or spring, two weeks before planting spring crops.
A field before sowing or planting any crop	Perennial cereals and dicotyledons	4-6
Non-agricultural lands (areas along oil and gas pipelines, highways and railways, power lines and other industrial areas)	Annual cereals and dicotyledons	2.25-4.5	Period of active weed growth.
	Perennial cereals and dicotyledons	4.5-6	Period of active weed growth.

How to prepare the working mixture and instructions for use

The field treatment procedure begins with preparing a spray solution. To do this, add a measured dose of the product to the required amount of water and mix the solution with a hydromixer. The herbicide "Aristocrat" is approved for use in private gardens. Small volumes of the solution can be vigorously stirred by hand for 5 minutes, ensuring that no sediment remains at the bottom. If the solution runs low, rinse the canister three times with water, adding the rinse water to the sprayer tank.

The day for spraying is chosen:

wind speed – less than 4 m/s, without turbulence;
no precipitation for at least half an hour after treatment.

After finishing work, rinse the dishes several times with water. Clean the area where the solution was prepared:

puddles are soaked with sand, which is then collected and taken to a disposal point;
Contaminated surfaces are washed with detergent.

Safety precautions

"Aristocrat" is moderately toxic to humans and bees, and poses a long-term risk to aquatic life. Only adults trained in occupational safety and first aid are permitted to handle the product. Pregnant and nursing mothers, as well as employees exempted from medical examinations, are not permitted to participate in either the spraying process or the dilution of the working fluid.

Personal equipment is provided to protect against the negative effects of the pesticide:

special clothing;
rubber boots;
chemical-resistant gloves;
eye mask;
gauze bandage on the respiratory organs.

Before lunch breaks or after finishing work, remove gloves to avoid touching the contaminated side. Wash hands and face thoroughly with soap and water. Eat at least 200 meters away from the work area. If Aristocrat herbicide comes into contact with exposed skin, immediately wipe it off with a cotton swab, then wash the area with soap and water.

Phytotoxicity level, what crops it is tolerant to

"Aristocrat" is very harmful to plants when it comes into contact with their vegetative organs. This applies equally to any crop and to weeds. This is why fields are sprayed before the emergence of useful plants. The safest time for spraying crops is late summer or autumn, after harvest.

Is there resistance?

In 2019, resistance to the herbicide Aristocrat was discovered in some weeds, caused by the widespread use of glyphosate-based products. Glyphosate is the most commonly used compound in the world. It is used to treat fields, industrial zones, parks, lawns, and sports fields.

What medications is it compatible with?

It makes sense to mix the herbicide "Aristocrat" in the same sprayer with liquid fertilizers and fungicides. It is not recommended to combine it with other herbicides, especially contact herbicides.

How much and how to store correctly

"Aristocrat" has a shelf life of 3 years. It should be stored in a tightly sealed, factory-sealed container in a pesticide warehouse located at least 400 meters from residential premises. The building housing the chemicals must be ventilated. The warehouse must be equipped with fire-fighting equipment. Access to the premises is restricted. The permissible temperature range is 0-30°C.

All of these are non-selective herbicides. To prevent resistance to the herbicide "Aristocrat," alternatives based on other herbicides are selected. The following products have a broad spectrum of activity:

Processing object	Weed	Herbicide	Directions for use
Many cultures	Annual and perennial cereals	Neutrino	After germination.
Potatoes, tomatoes	Annual and perennial cereals and dicotyledons	Titus	On vegetative crops and weeds.
Vegetables, oilseeds and forage crops	Annual cereals and dicotyledons	Gezagard	Before the crop emerges.
Watermelons, nightshades, cabbage, tobacco, peas, corn, sunflowers, sugar beets	Annual cereals and dicotyledons	Dual Gold	After planting until emergence.
Vegetables	Annual cereals and dicotyledons	"Stomp"	Before planting seedlings or crop shoots.
