Strategic weed control in beet and soybean crops

The herbicide "Gorizont" by "Zhenjiang Agrin Company Ltd." is a specialized solution designed for farmers managing beet crops and soybeans. By combining three active ingredients (desmedipham, phenmedipham, and ethofumesate), the product provides a multi-pathway attack on weeds, ensuring high selectivity and crop safety.

Field Application Scenarios

This post-emergence systemic herbicide is specifically formulated to control difficult-to-manage broadleaf and some grass weeds, such as common lambsquarters, pigweed, knotweed, and green foxtail. Its primary role in a farming operation is to clear fields during the critical early growth stages, preventing competition for nutrients, light, and moisture.

Key Features and Handling

• Versatile Dosage: Field application rates range from 0.5 to 1.0 L/ha, allowing for adjustments based on the specific weed spectrum and growth stage.
• Management Flexibility: The registration allows for up to 3 applications per season. This is essential for addressing multiple flushes of weeds in sugar and fodder beet farming.
• Systemic Action: As a foliar-applied herbicide, it penetrates the leaf surface quickly and moves systemically to stop weed growth, providing reliable results even under varying field conditions.

Produced as an emulsifiable concentrate, "Gorizont" is easy to prepare and mixes well for tank-mix applications. Being classified under hazard class 3, it is safe to handle when standard agricultural protective gear is used, making it an efficient part of any integrated pest management (IPM) program.
