LinCor 60WG

Effective cereal protection without extra costs

When working with winter wheat or barley, the main goal is to eliminate weeds without slowing down the crop's development. "Lincor 60WG," based on metsulfuron-methyl, has become my go-to tool for controlling a wide range of broadleaf weeds, including lamb's quarters, amaranth, and field mustard. This is a systemic herbicide absorbed through the leaves, which quickly translocates throughout the plant to block further growth.

Application and Performance

What I appreciate about this product is its formulation: the water-dispersible granules dissolve perfectly without clogging the sprayer nozzles. This is crucial when spraying time is tight and the field requires immediate attention. Since "Lincor 60WG" is a selective herbicide, it can be safely used post-emergence without fear of harming the crops, provided the dosage is followed. I use a rate of 0.005–0.01 kg/ha, which is sufficient for full coverage.

Field Operation Tips

• Systemic Effect: Weeds don't die instantly but gradually as the product disrupts cell division. Don't worry if the field looks green for a few days—the results will appear shortly and be definitive.
• Economics: One application per season is usually enough. This saves not only money on the product but also equipment engine hours and labor time.
• Compatibility: It is important to ensure the crops are not under stress, as the herbicide works best on actively growing weeds.

Although the hazard class is 3, I always follow standard safety protocols when handling chemicals. The product remains stable in tank mixtures; just make sure to mix the solution thoroughly. If you need to keep your fields clean of pests like chamomile, chickweed, or shepherd's purse, this solution offers excellent value for money.
