Zidua SC

Group 15

 

Residual control of key annual grasses and broadleaf weeds.

  • Group 15 chemistry delivers control of tough weeds, including resistant redroot pigweed and green and yellow foxtail
  • Residual activity controls germinating weed seedlings before or soon after crop emergence
  • Wide window of application from early pre-plant to early post-emergence and post-harvest

Benefits of Zidua SC

  • The residual activity of this Group 15 active provides consistent control of grass and broadleaf weeds, with flexible application timing
  • Requires rainfall to go into solution to then be taken up by the roots and shoots of germinating weeds before or shortly after emergence

Application Tips

Restricted entry interval – 12 hours.

  • Minimum seed depth is 2.5 cm for chickpeas, corn, field peas and lentils, and 4 cm for soybeans.
  • A minimum of 2 inches of soil covering the vegetative portion of potato plants following drag-off or hilling is required.
  • Zidua SC must be applied and activated by moisture prior to weed emergence. When adequate moisture is not received after Zidua SC application, weed control may be improved by irrigation (except flood irrigation).
  • Do not use on peat or muck soils with 7% or more organic matter content.
  • Do not apply more than 1 application of Zidua SC per season.

 

Grazing

  • Do not feed or graze treated hay or forage to livestock.

When to Apply

6 Application rates are for all soil types. Use the higher rate for longer residual and under heavier weed populations

7 When an in-crop application of another registered herbicide is planned.

8 Do not apply Zidua SC to soils classified as sand.

 

Water volume

Ground application only

40 L/ac (10 gal/ac) minimum

 

Mixing order

Add products separately. Do not mix multiple products at the same time.

  1. Use a 50 mesh filter screen and fill clean tank ½ to ¾ full of water.
  2. Add water conditioners if needed.
  3. Add a Wettable powder or water dispersible granular (WG) tank-mix partner if applicable.
  4. Agitate.9
  5. Add a Micro-encapsulated (ME) tank-mix partner if applicable.
  6. Add the required amount of Zidua SC herbicide.
  7. Add a Liquid, solution or suspension tank-mix partner if applicable.
  8. Add an Emulsifiable concentrate (EC) tank-mix partner if applicable.
  9. Add Glyphosate if needed.
  10. Add any Surfactants or adjuvants if required.
  11. Fill the remainder of the tank with water. If the solution is left for an extended period of time, agitate once every 8 hours before spraying again.

 

Note: A detergent-based cleaning solution should be used before changing over to a different chemistry.

 

9 Do not over-agitate at any point in the process.
