Formulation Technology and Mode of Action
ADAMA's advanced formulations integrate targeted active molecules with specialized built-in wetting agents and surfactants.
The formulation ensures rapid penetration through tough, waxy weed and fungal cuticles, resisting wash-off from sudden rainfall.
- Systemic Penetration: Absorbed rapidly through foliage and translocated through plant vascular tissues
- Formulation Stability: High-grade emulsifiers ensure uniform suspension without nozzle clogging
- Dual-Action Activity: Delivers immediate contact knockdown combined with residual suppression of emerging flushes
Target Crops and Field Applications
Shaked is registered across broad-acre cash crops, pulses, and vegetables facing aggressive pest and weed pressure.
Applying it at the correct phenological crop stage protects yield potential during the critical early competition window.
- Soybean & Pulses: Selective post-emergence suppression of competitive broadleaf and grassy flushes
- Horticultural Vegetables: Shields delicate vegetable foliage from stubborn blights and weed competition
- Application Window: Applied when target weeds or pathogens are in active early growth stages
Application Standards and Stewardship
Optimal field efficacy requires calibrated spray volume, proper water pH, and uniform nozzle coverage.
To prevent resistance development, alternate applications with complementary chemical groups with different modes of action.
- Spray Calibration: Use 150 to 200 liters of water per acre with flat-fan or hollow-cone nozzles
- Weather Conditions: Apply during calm morning hours to prevent spray drift and optimize stomatal absorption
- Label Compliance: Follow statutory CIBRC instructions regarding crop growth stages and pre-harvest intervals

Common questions
What company manufactures Shaked crop protection products?
Shaked is manufactured and marketed by ADAMA, a global leader in advanced crop protection formulations.
What is the importance of built-in adjuvants in modern agrochemicals?
Built-in adjuvants improve droplet spreading, enhance cuticle penetration, and provide rainfastness without requiring separate surfactant mixing.
Can Shaked be tank-mixed with other crop inputs?
Check the product label or perform a small jar compatibility test before tank-mixing with other agrochemicals.
