- Prager 28% EC is a selective contact herbicide designed for post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in field crops. It contains the active ingredient bromoxynil octanoate at a concentration of 28% in an emulsifiable concentrate (EC) form. It is characterized by its rapid action on developing weeds, directly affecting green tissues and inhibiting photosynthesis, leading to weed wilting and death within a short period. The herbicide is applied after weed emergence in the field to reduce competition for water, nutrients, and light, thereby improving crop growth and increasing production efficiency. It is an effective option within weed management programs for wheat, barley, maize, and lawns.

⚠️ Precautions and Instructions for Use
- It is used only after germination because the pesticide works by contact and requires the presence of weed leaves.
- Good coverage of the target plants must be achieved during spraying to obtain the best result.
- Spraying is best when the grass is small and in the beginning of growth, and avoid spraying on large or woody grasses.
- Spraying is best done in the early morning or late afternoon to improve efficiency and reduce spray evaporation.
- Avoid spray drifting into adjacent sensitive crops.
- Wear personal protective equipment during preparation and spraying.
- Avoid eating or drinking during use and wash your hands after finishing.
- Wash the spraying equipment thoroughly after use.
- The pesticide should be kept in its original container, away from children and water sources.
- Dispose of empty containers safely and do not reuse them.
👨🌾 Artistic advice from Orchid
- The best performance of the herbicide Pragaz is achieved when spraying early on young weeds and during the active growth stage, because the herbicide is contact and depends on the spray reaching the leaves directly; the better the coverage, the faster and stronger the control within the field.
