Advanced Weed Control in Cereal Crops

Farmers rely on Quelex 200, WG, from DOW AgroSciences when they need a high-performance solution to clean winter wheat and barley fields from persistent broadleaf weeds. Powered by Arylex™ active (halauxifen-methyl), this herbicide provides robust control even in fluctuating spring temperatures, making it a reliable choice for early-season crop protection.

Field Application and Performance

Quelex 200, WG is a selective, systemic post-emergence herbicide designed for cereal crops. It is widely used to manage stubborn weeds such as cleavers, ragweed, thistle, and common lambsquarters. The presence of a safener in the formulation ensures high crop safety, while its dual-mode action is specifically tailored to overcome weed resistance.

• Cold-Weather Efficacy: The combination of florasulam and halauxifen-methyl allows for consistent performance in cool, early-spring conditions, allowing for timely herbicide applications.
• Resistance Management: The inclusion of multiple active ingredients provides a multi-pathway attack on weeds, preventing the buildup of resistance in the field.
• Easy Handling: The water-dispersible granule formulation ensures fast and stable mixing, providing a homogeneous solution that is gentle on spraying equipment.

The application rate ranges from 0.5 to 1.0 liters per hectare. As a selective post-emergence herbicide, it is cleared for one application per season. This makes Quelex 200, WG an essential insurance policy for growers, effectively correcting weed pressure issues and ensuring that cereal crops have the competitive edge they need to thrive from the start.
