DuPontTM OmneraTM LQMTM (DPX-SGE27) – A new generation of liquid formulated cereal herbicides

Abstract

DuPontTM OmneraTM LQMTM (DPX-SGE27) (5 g/l metsulfuron-methyl, 30 g/l thifensulfuron-methyl, 135 g/l fluroxypyr) represents with an application rate of 1 l/ha a new “herbicide” solution in cereals. DuPontTM OmneraTM LQMTM is characterized by a very good efficacy, a broad weed spectrum, a broad application window (BBCH 20 – 39 in winter cereals; BBCH 12 – 39 in spring cereals) and a very good crop safety. DuPontTM OmneraTM LQMTM is formulated as oil dispersion. Several years of field trials demonstrate the efficacy of DuPontTM OmneraTM LQMTM against mayweed (Matricaria chamomilla), oilseed rape (Brassica napus), common chickweed (Stellaria media), but also against difficult weeds like wild buckwheat (Polygonum convolvulus) and especially against catchweed bedstraw (Galium aparine).
