Systemic herbicide for the control of annual broadleaf and some grass weeds

Advantages

  • Effectively destroys virtually all species of annual broadleaf weeds, including hard-to-control ones, and some grass weeds.
  • Combined mechanism of action on weeds – through the foliage and the soil.
  • First signs of action appear after 2–7 days.
  • High selectivity.

Characteristics

Active ingredient content
Phenmedipham, 91 g/l + Desmedipham, 71 g/l + Ethofumesate, 112 g/l
Chemical group
phenylcarbamates, benzofurans
Formulation
emulsion concentrate
WHO classification
Class III (moderately hazardous)

Recommendations for use

Application features
Beet crops are treated with the product when the first, second and third waves of weeds emerge, at 7-14 day intervals. The efficacy depends on matching the application rate to the weed growth stage. The total amount of the product should not exceed 3 l/ha per season.
Working solution pH requirements
from 5 to 6
Working solution consumption rate
200-300 l/ha; note that the concentration of the BETAGARD working solution must be at least 0.4%, i.e. at least 0.4 l of the product per 100 l of water.
Compatibility
To broaden the spectrum of herbicidal activity, it is advisable to use the product in tank mixes with herbicides based on metamitron, triflusulfuron-methyl and other active ingredients. However, in each specific case an additional compatibility check is recommended.
Application precautions
If weeds are overgrown, the application rate should be increased or the tank mix reinforced with partners. It is not recommended to use in tank mixes with organophosphorus insecticides and graminicides.

Mechanism of action

The well-chosen active ingredients phenmedipham, desmedipham and ethofumesate cause destructive and irreversible processes in weed plants: disruption of photosynthesis, lipid synthesis and protein metabolism, retardation of growth and cell division, and prevention of wax layer formation. Phenmedipham and desmedipham are mobile photosynthesis inhibitors – after penetrating the leaves, they concentrate in the chloroplasts and block the photosynthetic apparatus. Ethofumesate (a seedling inhibitor) is absorbed by different parts of plants: broadleaf plants through the roots and monocotyledonous plants through the coleoptile during germination. Visual signs of the product's action – lightening of leaf colour and, subsequently, chlorosis – appear 2-7 days after herbicide treatment. Complete weed death occurs within 2–3 weeks.
