Crop Protection: Working with «Luch» Herbicide

When cultivating fodder beets, choosing the right post-emergence herbicide is the key to a successful harvest. «Luch» from «Badvasi» is a reliable three-component tool designed to keep fields free of weeds, even when dealing with aggressive species like white goosefoot or amaranth.

Application and Efficiency

As an operator, it is essential that the herbicide works systemically: it is absorbed through the leaves and suppresses weeds without causing significant stress to the beets. The combination of desmedipham, phenmedipham, and ethofumesate is a time-tested formula that effectively targets mustard, shepherd's purse, chickweed, and cleavers.

Operational Guidelines

• Application Rate: It is crucial to time the application based on weed growth stages to maximize impact.
• Treatment Frequency: The product allows for up to three applications, providing the flexibility needed to maintain protection throughout the season.
• Ease of Use: Being an emulsifiable concentrate, it mixes well in the tank. If the stock solution is prepared correctly, it does not clog the nozzles, which saves valuable time during the busy season.

Since this is a class 3 hazard product, standard personal protective equipment is mandatory. In the field, «Luch» delivers consistent results: weed growth is stunted quickly, giving the beets the space they need to thrive without competition for moisture or nutrients.
