Venzar 500 SC, 5 liters

Weed Control
VENZAR works mainly by root uptake.  If it is tank‐mixed with a herbicide partner it controls a wide range of broad‐leaved weeds.  It is most effective when applied as part of a programme when weeds small and actively growing. It is important to identify the weeds occurring in the crop and refer to the weed table to ensure that the weeds present are those susceptible to this product plus appropriate tank‐mix partner.

Dose
Apply it at maximum of 0.4 L/ha with a suitable herbicide tank‐mix partner(s) 

Crops
This product can be used on all varieties of sugar beet at the growth stages given below

Following Crops
After applying this product to a sugar beet crop, only cereals should be sown in the same calendar year. Any crop may be sown or planted in the following spring (i.e. next calendar year). In the event of crop failure for any reason, ploughing and cultivation to a depth of at least 15cm should be carried out. Sow only beet within four months of application of this product provided this agrees with the recommendation of any partner product.

Timing
It can be applied from the early cotyledon stage of sugar beet as part of a planned programme. The first application should be made when the first weeds have emerged. Subsequent applications should be made every 7 ‐ 14 days when new flushes of weeds are at or just past the cotyledon stage. 

OVERALL APPLICATION
VENZAR should be applied overall in 80  ‐ 150 litres of water per hectare, using suitable equipment to give a FINE spray.  Good, even spray cover of the weeds is essential for best results. Care should be taken not to overlap spray swaths.

BAND APPLICATION
Similar doses, water volumes and spray quality should be used as in overall application, but the area covered will be dependent upon the row spacing and bandwidth.  Careful calibration is essential to achieve best results.

Mixing
VENZAR mixes easily with water, but the next mixing procedure should be followed:  Quarter fill the spray tank with water, start the agitation and add the required quantity of product directly to the tank or via an induction bowl when fitted, without prior creaming.  Continue agitation while topping up the tank and while spraying. Use the tank the same day as mixing.

Environmental protection  
DO NOT CONTAMINATE SURFACE WATERS OR DITCHES with chemical or used container
DO NOT ALLOW DIRECT SPRAY from horizontal boom sprayers to fall within 5m of the top of the bank of a static or flowing water body, unless a Local Environmental Risk Assessment for Pesticides permits a narrower buffer zone, or within 1m of the top of a ditch which is dry at the time of application.  DO NOT ALLOW DIRECT SPRAY from hand‐held sprayers to fall within 1 m of the top of a bank of a static or flowing water body. Aim spray away from water.
This product qualifies for inclusion within the Local Environmental Risk Assessment for Pesticides (LERAP) scheme.  Before each spraying operation from a horizontal boom sprayer, either a LERAP must be carried out in accordance with CRD’s published guidance or the statutory buffer zone must be maintained. The results of the LERAP must be recorded and kept available for three years. Spray must be aimed away from water.
