Active components and release form
The drug is presented in the form of granules dispersed in water. Its active ingredients are "Imazethapyr" (approximately 45%) and "Hlorimuron-ethyl" (about 15%). The first is attributed to imidazolines, and the second is extracted from sulfonylureas.
Activity spectrum
"Fabian" - herbicide for crops of soybean of extensive action. It effectively protects crops from annual and perennial dicotyledonous weeds and uninvited cereals. 
Benefits
The drug has a number of advantages that distinguish it from similar ones:
- Herbicide "Fabian" has a low consumption rate, and efficiency plays an important role when using expensive drugs;
- destroys many types of weeds;
- destroys unwanted vegetation in a complex, that is absorbed into the root system and foliage of plants;
- the effect after treatment persists for a long time;
- the drug can be applied at a convenient time, its use is allowed both before the planting season and during the growing season.
Mechanism of action
After processing, the active substances in the shortest possible time penetrate into the root system and the leaves of weeds, after which an irreversible process begins, aimed at their destruction. Moving through the xylem and phloem, the drug lingers in growth centers and inhibits protein synthesis. All this leads to the fact that the cells cease to divide, the weed stops growing and soon dies. 
Processing technology
Herbicide "Fabian", according to the instructions for use, is made at the rate of 100 g per hectare, with air temperature from 10 to 24 degrees, always in dry weather. It is best to spray when weeds enter active growth phase. Soybean is not treated when the culture is in a stressful state, which can provoke a strong heat or coolness, diseases and pests, excessive moisture or drought. All these factors may contribute to a decrease in the activity of the drug. Spraying should be started after the field boronovany works. The soil before treatment should be moderately wet, loosened and even.
During the growing season of plants, a one-time treatment is sufficient.in the form of ground spraying of crops or introduction of herbicide into the soil before planting soybeans.
Impact speed
Drug starts act almost immediately after making, the positive dynamics becomes noticeable after 5 days, provided that the air temperature and soil moisture are at the right level. If these figures deviate from the norm, the herbicide begins to work for about 10 days. After 25-30 days the weeds die off completely. 
Period of protective action
The effect is maintained throughout the season, that is, during the growing season, soybeans remain protected.
Compatibility with other pesticides
If a moment is missed, the herbicide is applied at a time when harmful perennials are already rooted, it would be advisable to use the drug with other pesticides to increase efficiency. Before germination, you can treat the soil with herbicides such as Treflan, Lazurit and Tornado, and after the first shoots appear, add Fabian. 
In cases where the field is completely neglected and the weeds have grown incredibly,It is recommended to prepare a mixture of the preparations "Nabob" and "Fabian". The proportions depend on the extent of soy pollution by weeds. Thus, 100 l per 1 ha of the Fabian and 1-1.5 l per 1 ha of the Nabob are taken. For the preparation of tank mixes with the herbicide "Fabian" use "Nabob", "Miura" and "Adyu". 
Crop rotation restrictions
In the same season, after the introduction of the drug, you can sow winter rapeseed and wheat, provided that the hybrids are resistant to the active substances of the herbicide "Fabian", and its effect will not affect them. 
Already next season, planting of spring and winter wheat, barley, rye, corn, peas, beans, alfalfa, rapeseed, sunflower and sorghum is allowed. But again: it is important that the plants are resistant to imidazolines. After 2 years, allowed to sow oats and sunflower. After 3 years, all restrictions on crop rotation are removed and planting of any crops is possible.
Terms and conditions of storage
Store "Fabian" in specialized warehouses for pesticides, in hermetic original packaging, no more than 5 years after the date of manufacture. The air temperature in such rooms can vary from -25 to +35 degrees. 
Herbicide "Fabian" proved itself well, its powerful effect was appreciated and widely used in the cultivation of soybeans. Observing the rules of use when making the drug, you will ensure the safety of the future crop and get rid of annoying weeds.
