Benogol Quatro

Four-Component Synergy: How Benogol Quatro Works

Successful beet cultivation depends on maintaining field hygiene during the cotyledon and first-true-leaf stages. "Benogol Quatro" by DDE Farm AG (Liechtenstein) provides a complex chemical solution where a combination of four active ingredients (desmedipham, phenmedipham, ethofumesate, metamitron) addresses all critical development points of dicot weeds.

Technical Profile

• Systemic Action: Unlike contact-only analogs, the components are rapidly absorbed by the leaf surface and translocated via the phloem, disrupting photosynthesis and cell division in growth zones.
• Selectivity: This herbicide is designed specifically for forage and table beets. Due to its selective mechanism, the crop metabolizes the active ingredients without phytotoxic stress, while the targeted weeds are eliminated.
• Suspension Concentrate: The formulation ensures stability in the tank mix and excellent adhesion to the waxy cuticle of weeds.

Practical Application

The application protocol for "Benogol Quatro" utilizes a split-dose approach (up to 3 treatments per season), which is crucial for managing weed flushes. A dosage of 1–1.5 L/ha allows for high-efficiency control during early vegetative stages. The systemic nature of the product compensates for reduced efficacy during unfavorable weather conditions common during the early growth cycle of beets.
