Brand Name: SWAL
Product Overview:
SWAL Alito is a selective pre-emergence herbicide based on Metalochlor 50% EC. It is designed mainly for soybean crops to control a broad range of grasses and broadleaf weeds by acting systemically in the soil and preventing weed emergence shortly after planting.
Summary:
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Product Type / Formulation | Selective, Pre-emergence herbicide; Emulsifiable Concentrate (EC) formulation |
| Mode of Action | Systemic — acts in the soil; absorbed by emerging weeds; inhibits early weed growth before emergence. |
| Major Crop(s) | Soybean |
| Target Weeds | Common grasses and broadleaf weeds, including: Amaranthus viridis, Cyperus difformis, Echinochloa colona, Panicum repens, Eleusine indica, Digitaria sanguinalis |
| Dosage / Rate | ~ 800 ml per acre for soybean |
| Recommended Timing / Use | Apply pre-emergence — i.e. after sowing but before weeds emerge; ensure the soil is moist so herbicide works effectively. |
| Scope / Advantages | Helps reduce early weed competition, preserving nutrients and moisture for crop; selective so it won’t harm soybean when used correctly. |
Benefits:
- Selective Pre-Emergence Weed Control-Targets weeds before they emerge, reducing competition from early stages without harming soybean plants.
- Broad Weed Spectrum Coverage- Effective against both grasses and broadleaf weeds such as Amaranthus viridis, Cyperus difformis, Echinochloa colona, etc.
- Systemic Action- Moves within weed seedlings (via roots/shoots) to suppress weed growth early and prevent establishment.
- Longer Duration of Control- Helps maintain weed suppression through the early critical stages of crop growth, reducing the need for frequent subsequent weedings.
- Cost-Effective Use- With one application (dose ~800 ml/acre) of Alito early in the season, farmers can save on labor and subsequent weed management inputs.
- Safer for Crop- Being selective and with proper timing (pre-emergence), it poses minimal risk to soybean crop safety when used as per label.
