Instructions for use and the principle of operation of Banvel herbicide, consumption rates

Many gardeners are faced with weeds that need to be removed. This can be done in a variety of ways, but some use herbicides. Banvel herbicide is popular among gardeners. Before using it, you must familiarize yourself with the description and features of using the tool.

Composition, release form and purpose of the drug "Banvel"

A plant treatment agent is available in the form of a liquid solution. Dicamba is used in the manufacture of the drug. The concentration of this substance in the composition is 45-50%.

Most often Banvel is used to get rid of perennial weeds that have appeared in corn and around cereals. However, this agent can also be sprayed on areas where vegetable seedlings are grown.

How the tool works

Before using a herbicidal agent, you need to understand its principle of action.

After the treatment, the active ingredient penetrates the weeds through their foliage. Then it moves from them along the stems to the root system and the upper part of the plants. When a large amount of herbicide accumulates inside the seedlings, they stop growing. Over time, the treated weeds develop yellow spots and begin to dry out and die.

Impact speed

People who are going to use Banvel in the future are interested in the speed of its impact. This tool does not take effect immediately after treatment and therefore will have to wait a little. The first signs of the action of the herbicide on weeds appear one and a half weeks after spraying the seedlings.

In this case, the protection time is twice as long. It is five and a half weeks. Therefore, re-processing is carried out after a month and a half.

Herbicide benefits

Banvel, like other herbicidal products, has advantages that you need to familiarize yourself with before using it. The benefits of the drug include the following:

• rapid penetration into plants through their foliage;
• effective against most weeds;
• does not have a negative effect on vegetable crops;
• does not affect crop rotation in any way;
• used to create tank mixes;
• manages to completely decompose in the soil before the end of the growing season;

Consumption measures for various plants

For different plants, consumption rates may differ and therefore it is necessary to figure out in advance the amount of use of the product when processing different crops:

1. Wheat. When processing such a crop from weeds per 1 ha, 300 milliliters of Banvela are used.
2. Vegetable crops. When processing a plot with vegetables, 1 hectare is sprayed with 250 milliliters.
3. Corn. When processing corn, you will need 800 milliliters of the mixture per hectare.

How to prepare a working solution

Before using Banvel, you need to figure out how to prepare a working solution for spraying from it.

First, the container in which the product will be prepared is half filled with ordinary water. Then, according to the instructions, the drug is added and water is topped up. The mixture is thoroughly mixed for 5-7 minutes so that the herbicide dissolves better. If the solution is poorly mixed, it will be less effective at controlling weeds.

How to apply the ready-made mixture

The instructions for use will help you to use the working solution correctly and therefore it is better to familiarize yourself with it in advance. It is necessary to use a herbicide during the period of maximum contamination of the site. However, the processing must be completed before the tillering of grain crops.

It is necessary to use the product carefully so that it does not fall on neighboring seedlings. Therefore, it is better to do this in the morning or in the evening, when there is no strong wind. Spraying is carried out 1-2 times per season.

Safety when working with the tool

Before using Banvel, you need to familiarize yourself with the safety rules. People who spray seedlings should not smoke or drink alcohol while working. You also need to protect yourself so that the product does not fall on your hands. To do this, wear rubberized gloves. Ordinary glasses can be used to protect your eyes. Sometimes the herbicide enters the respiratory system.

A respirator or gauze bandage will help prevent this.

Herbicide toxicity

This agent, unlike other herbicidal preparations, is not phytotoxic. Especially if you use it according to the instructions. Banvel belongs to the third group of danger, and therefore it is not capable of harming a person. However, despite this, it must be used with special protective equipment.

Compatibility with other pesticides

Sometimes Banvel does not help to control weeds and therefore is combined with other products. Experts advise combining the mixture with pesticides. However, before that, you need to familiarize yourself with whether the selected drug is compatible with the herbicide.
