Biceps Garant, EC, herbicide

Triple-Action Protection for Beet Crops

Effective weed management is the cornerstone of a high-yield beet harvest. Biceps Garant, EC, produced by ZAO August-Bel, offers a robust, systemic solution specifically designed to target persistent broadleaf weeds in fodder and table beet fields. By combining desmedipham, phenmedipham, and ethofumesate, this herbicide provides a powerful synergistic effect that eliminates competition from species such as common lambsquarters, pigweed, ragweed, and cleavers.

Why Biceps Garant Stands Out

What distinguishes Biceps Garant in the crop protection market is its precise selectivity and dual-mode action. It acts primarily through the leaves but also provides a necessary soil-level influence to curb secondary weed flushes. This makes it a reliable insurance policy for agronomists facing variable weed pressure.

• Systemic Control: Rapid absorption blocks photosynthesis, leading to quick weed cessation.
• Customizable Application: The recommended dose of 1.0–2.0 L/ha allows for up to 3 applications per season, providing flexibility to adjust to specific field conditions.
• Crop Safety: Specifically engineered to protect beet crops while eradicating aggressive intruders, ensuring the crop has room to reach its full potential.

Key Operational Guidelines

As a post-emergence herbicide, Biceps Garant works best when weeds are in the cotyledon stage. A crucial management aspect is the pre-harvest interval: the final treatment must occur no later than 56 days before harvest. Classified as a Hazard Class 3 product, it requires standard professional care in handling. For agricultural operations seeking a balanced, proven, and highly effective tool for their beet production, Biceps Garant serves as a foundational component of a modern herbicide program.
