More convenient packaging
provides efficiency for growers
Controlling hard-to-kill weeds in
conventional or glyphosate-tolerant soybeans just got more
convenient for larger-acreage growers. DuPont™ Guardian™ Big Guy
herbicide tank-mix delivers all the benefits of Guardian™ in an
easy-to-use, convenient, larger format.
“Large-acreage soybean growers will get all the great
performance they’ve come to expect from Guardian™ with the added
convenience and savings of the larger format,” says Dave
Kloppenburg, senior sales territory manager.
DuPont™ Guardian™ BG provides control of hard-to-kill weeds
including yellow nutsedge, dandelion and sow thistle. Guardian™
can be applied as a pre-plant burndown on conventional and
glyphosate-tolerant soybeans or in-crop in glyphosate-tolerant
soybeans only. It has knockdown and residual activity on many
annual broadleaf weeds and grasses. With two modes of action
(Group 9 and Group 2), Guardian™ also delivers effective
resistance management.
The new Guardian™ BG is designed to cover 600 acres. Big Guy
delivers 432 L of high-load glyphosate in a one-way tote, sold
with matching premeasured pouches of dry product. Disposal is
simple: growers can return rinsed totes to their retailers.
