Selective systemic herbicide for control of annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds.
Active ingredient: Nicosulfuron 40 g/l (+ rapeseed oil)

Authorized distributor for Serbia: Agrija RSL, Serbia
Available packaging sizes: 100 ml, 250 ml, 500 ml, 1 L, 5 L
Mode of action:
REVENGE is rapidly absorbed into the weed leaves and is translocated through the xylem and phloem towards the meristematic zone. In this zone, Nicosulfuron inhibits acetolactate synthase(ALS), a key enzyme for branched-chain aminoacids synthesis, which results in cessation of cell division and plant growth. Following post-emergent application of REVENGE, treated weeds stop growing within a few hours and show gradual discoloration on the newly developed leaves. This is followed by leaf necrosis, desiccation and ultimate death of the plants. The visual symptoms appear within three to four days after treatment and the whole plants are normally killed within 20 to 25 days. Selectivity The selectivity of REVENGE is due to the capacity that the crop has to metabolize the herbicide and transform it into inactive metabolites. Unlike other nicosulfuron-containing herbicides, REVENGE contains rapeseed oil, which makes the formulation less viscous, more stable, more resistant to rain washout, protects it from rancidity and makes it more effective by improving the adhesion of the product to weeds.
