Protecting sugar and fodder beet crops: Working with "Gorynych"

When you walk into a beet field during the early growth stages, the main concern is weeds stealing moisture and nutrients. Using the "Gorynych" herbicide, produced by Nanjing Essence Fine-Chemical Co. Ltd (China), has proven to be a reliable way to regain control. As a systemic selective herbicide, it manages weeds effectively without putting unnecessary stress on the crop itself.

Why this chemical composition stands out

The combination of desmedipham, phenmedipham, and ethofumesate is a proven solution. In practice, this mixture is highly effective against common threats like lambsquarters (white goosefoot), pigweed, and foxtail. Since this is a post-emergence herbicide, it acts as a perfect "insurance policy" after the initial sprouts appear. The emulsifiable concentrate formulation is easy to dose and mixes well in the spray tank, preventing nozzle clogging, which saves valuable time during peak season operations.

Key field application insights

• Flexible dosing: A rate of 0.5 to 1.0 l/ha allows for precise adjustment based on the weed pressure level of a specific plot.
• Multi-stage control: The maximum of 3 applications provides flexibility to keep fields clean throughout the critical growth period of the beets.
• High selectivity: The product targets weeds specifically, ensuring the beets maintain their development speed without suffering from chemical scorch.

Safety is a priority, and with its classification as a Category 3 hazard, standard protective measures are mandatory for operators. In the field, the systemic effect is clearly visible, with weed growth halting just days after application. With the support of local entities like Agrokhimkontrakt and Agrokhim-Zakhyst (Ukraine), obtaining the product and adhering to the technical application guidelines is straightforward and reliable.
