Banvel 4 S 480 SL

Maximum weed control for high-yield fields

Banvel 4 S 480 SL by Syngenta is a professional-grade systemic herbicide designed to tackle the most stubborn broadleaf weeds in cereals and corn. At the heart of the product is dicamba, a potent active substance that forces weeds into rapid, uncontrollable growth, leading to their total collapse and death from the roots up.

Why top producers prefer Banvel

• Root-deep systemic action: Unlike contact herbicides that only affect surface foliage, Banvel 4 S travels through the entire vascular system of the weed. It is highly effective against challenging perennials like field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis).
• Crop selectivity: Specially formulated to eliminate weed competition without stressing your primary crops, including winter wheat, barley, rye, oats, and maize.
• Broad-spectrum efficacy: Successfully targets hard-to-kill species such as common lambsquarters, redroot pigweed, field pennycress, shepherd's purse, chickweed, and cleavers.

Application insights

Banvel 4 S 480 SL works as a robust post-emergence insurance herbicide. Its liquid concentrate form ensures excellent solubility and even distribution across the leaf surface, which is essential for uniform coverage during spraying.

Strengths: Its standout feature is its ability to handle deep-rooted perennials, making it a cornerstone for fields with high weed pressure. It offers a clean start for the crop, removing early competition for nutrients and water.

Practical notes: Given its 3rd hazard class status, strict adherence to safety protocols is required. As it is designed for a single application per season, timing is crucial; applying it during the active growth phase of the weeds ensures maximum yield protection. Depending on the density of the weeds, the rate ranges from 0.5 to 1.0 liters per hectare, providing a reliable defense against infestations.

Banvel 4 S is the optimal choice for agronomists who prioritize high yields and refuse to compromise on weed control effectiveness.
