Butisan®400, CS

Why Butizan®400, SC is the Backbone of Professional Rapeseed Production

When it comes to protecting winter rapeseed during the early growth stages, there is no room for error. Butizan®400, SC is a tool for farmers who plan their yield starting from the sowing date. As a soil-applied herbicide, it performs the heavy lifting by eliminating weeds before they can compete with your crop for vital water and nutrients.

Field Application Experience

Unlike foliar treatments, the secret to success here is capturing the right soil moisture window. If you apply it on bone-dry soil, its efficacy drops — this is a simple agronomic fact. The application rate varies from 1.7 to 2.5 liters per hectare depending on the soil type and weed pressure. Experience shows that on heavy soils, it is better to stick to the higher end of the dosage range to ensure a stable protective screen.

• Selectivity: The crop remains unaffected while the product targets annual broadleaf and grass weeds with precision.
• Systemic Action: By absorbing through the root system and seedlings, it halts weed growth at the very first stage of development.
• Suspension Concentrate: The formulation ensures excellent stability in the tank, reducing the risk of nozzle clogging and simplifying sprayer maintenance.

Keep in mind that this is a single-application treatment. More than one application per season is neither required nor recommended. With a toxicity class 3, standard safety measures apply—gloves, goggles, and protective clothing are all you need to handle it safely.
