SOIL HERBICIDES
EROSIONCONTROL® is applied as an adhesive together with soil herbicides. The effectiveness of soil herbicides is increased, the water retention capacity is increased, and leaching into deeper soil layers is reduced.
EROSIONCONTROL® formulated with amylofol® is an innovative adhesive made from renewable raw materials. Environmentally friendly, non-toxic, completely biodegradable, and reversible water solubility characterize EROSIONCONTROL® and its excellent adhesion and coating properties. Humic acid has already been added to EROSIONCONTROL®, which in synergy with amylofol® enhances the favorable (or positive as in the original), soil-improving properties. Our adhesives are manufactured in our factory using a specially developed and patented process by amynova polymers® GmbH.
EROSIONCONTROL® is applied as an adhesive with pre-emergence herbicides and liquid fertilizers and forms a biodegradable polymer layer when the spray coating dries. Together with the active ingredients, this penetrates the soil more slowly. Herbicides and fertilizers are kept longer in the upper soil layers and have a longer-lasting and sustainable effect. At the same time, EROSIONCONTROL® prevents the active ingredients from being washed out into deeper soil layers during heavy rainfall. This reduces the risk of damage to the seed in the soil and leaching into the groundwater.
EROSIONCONTROL® EC-1000 is designed for use on humus-rich soils, while EROSIONCONTROL® EC-2000 is used on sandy, humus-poor soils with high susceptibility to wind erosion.
We have developed EROSIONCONTROL® EC-3000 specifically to prevent wind erosion, which can be used as a soil additive if it is applied without pesticides. If the goal is to prevent wind erosion and apply pre-emergence herbicides in combination, this must be done with either EROSIONCONTROL® EC-1000 or EC-2000.
The active ingredients are applied together with EROSIONCONTROL® .
After drying, a thin starch film forms on the soil surface. The active ingredients are “protected” in the starch film.
The starch film absorbs moisture and forms a gel which is further distributed in the soil. The active ingredients are released and kept longer in the topsoil.

When applying plant protection products, fertilizers and biostimulants to the seeds, SEEDCOVER® ensures that the seed? is evenly wetted, combined with a wash-off resistance of up to 100mm, without phytotoxic effects.
In the case of foliar applications of plant protection products, fertilizers and biostimulants, CROPCOVER® ensures that the plant is evenly wetted, combined with a wash-off resistance of up to 100mm, without phytotoxic effects.
