| Q. |
How does AIM work?
|
| A. |
The
active ingredient in Aim is carfentrazone-ethyl, is a
protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) inhibitor. This alternate mode of
action disrupts cell membranes on contact, resulting in rapid
desiccation of susceptible broadleaf weeds. While your sorghum may show
signs of cosmetic leaf burn, there is no effect on its roots, growing
points or your eventual yields. |
| |
| Q. |
How will Aim affect my yields?
|
| A. |
When
you control damaging weeds, one of the primary stresses to your crop is
eliminated. Weed control, pest control, good water management and a
good fertility program ensure that you've provided the best scenario
for high sorghum yields. |
| |
| Q. |
How environmentally friendly is Aim?
|
| A. |
Because
Aim is a contact herbicide, rates of application are very low. As a
result, less chemical is introduced into the environment. What's more,
the product is short-lived, so it won't negatively affect yields or
create problems with rotation crops. |
| |
| Q. |
Is Aim expensive?
|
| A. |
Actually, Aim is quite economical. Its low use rate, competitive pricing and superior control make Aim an exceptional value. |
