[Usage Guidance]  [Brooms Barn Trials 2008] [Brooms Barn Images]

When it comes to controlling both broad-leaved weeds and grassweeds with optimum return on investment, there's no better choice than Betanal Expert.

With a flexible co-formulation, it works whatever the weather and whenever you spray - so you can manage your time more effectively.It's tough on weeds whilst remaining gentle enough to ensure your youngest, most sensitive beet will thrive.

Betanal Expert gives improved control of many important broad-leaved weeds and enhanced activity against difficult grass weeds, being a three way co-formulation of phenmedipham, desmedipham and ethofumesate based on patented formulation technology containing modified vegetable oils.

This advanced formulation improves spray coverage of the leaf surface, accelerating uptake by weeds and giving faster control.

Betanal Expert has a range of doses and mixtures to cover all growth stages of the beet and can be used on all soil types.


Desmedipham

Desmedipham is more active against cleavers, volunteer oilseed rape, Amaranthus, annual mercury, volunteer potatoes and annual grass weeds when compared to phenmedipham.

Under cool conditions desmedipham remains more active than phenmedipham and the combination of the two actives produces a very robust solution.

 

 

 


Advanced formulation technology

Advanced Micro Droplet (AMD) formulation technology is a unique approach to herbicide formulation developed and patented by Bayer CropScience. 

Betanal Expert is formulated with AMD to deliver significant performance advantages over standard SC formulations.  With AMD the active ingredients and special formulants are coated in vegetable oil, or oil-based solvent, to create highly active micro droplets. This produces an advanced formulation system that is highly stable in concentration and spray solution and brings fast, strong, long-lasting activity against weeds.

In the field, Betanal Expert's AMD formulation makes it easy to apply and drives the high weed control performance and crop safety needed to maximise sugar beet yields and profit.

Continuous development of new formulation technology is part of Bayer CropScience's commitment to 'Backing British Beet'.
