Gersotil V.R.G. Herbicide

Effective cereal protection: The profile of Gersotil W.R.G.

For agronomists working with winter and spring cereals, controlling broadleaf weeds during early vegetation is a top priority. Gersotil W.R.G., manufactured by Sunrise Chemicals Co. Ltd (Shanghai, China) and distributed by Khimagromarketing, is a systemic herbicide based on tribenuron-methyl. Its main advantage is high selectivity, allowing the crop to develop without interference while the active ingredient tackles aggressive weed species.

Why systemic control matters

Unlike contact herbicides, Gersotil W.R.G. is absorbed through the leaf surface and rapidly blocks cell division in the target plant. This makes it indispensable for managing stubborn weeds such as common ragweed, lamb's quarters, cleavers, and field mustard. Applied at a rate of 0.015–0.025 kg/ha, it provides a reliable post-emergence safety net for your fields.

Key benefits for your operation

• Selective action: The product does not stunt wheat or barley, which is critical for preserving yield potential.
• Ease of use: The water-soluble granule formulation simplifies the preparation of the spray mixture and eliminates dust issues.
• Broad-spectrum control: A single application clears the field of most common broadleaf weeds, including pigweed, shepherd's purse, and common chickweed.

Important operational notes

Gersotil W.R.G. falls under hazard class 3 and requires standard safety precautions when handling pesticides. Note that the product is intended for a single application per season, making the timing (ideally during the crop tillering phase) the most crucial factor for success. If a field is heavily infested with perennial weeds, this herbicide may be used in tank mixes (according to established regulations); however, for standard grain protection, its standalone efficacy is typically sufficient.
