DuPontTM Debut®DuoActive (triflusulfuron-methyl 71 g/kg, Lenacil 714 g/kg) is a new herbicide for the control of broadleaf weeds in fodder and sugar beets. The combination of a leave with a soil active ingredient controls successfully typical broadleaf weeds as well as hard to control weeds like volunteer oilseed rape (Brassica napus), knotweeds (Polygonum ssp.), fool's parsley (Aethusa cynapium) and cleavers (Galium aparine). Debut®DuoActive is an excellent partner for standard tankmixes based on the active ingredients Phen/-desmedipham, ethofumesate und metamitron. As part of a herbicide program Debut®DuoActive helps to improve significantly the efficiency of standard herbicide tankmixes and reduces the necessity of possible subsequent treatment. Registration is applied for use in fodder and sugar beet (BBCH 10-39) with a use rate of 210 g/ha (+ 0.1 % (v/v) DuPontTM Trend®).
