MONITOR, WG, (Sulfosulfuron, 750 g/kg)

Advanced weed control for winter wheat

In the professional agricultural sector, maintaining clear fields of winter wheat is a prerequisite for achieving maximum yield. MONITOR, WG, produced by Monsanto Europe S.A. in Belgium, represents a top-tier solution for farmers tackling resistant grass and broad-leaved weeds. Its active ingredient, sulfosulfuron (a sulfonylurea derivative), is recognized worldwide for its potent systemic action and selectivity.

How MONITOR, WG works

As a selective, post-emergence herbicide, MONITOR is engineered to be absorbed primarily through the foliage, quickly translocating through the weed's system to stop growth at its biological source. It is specifically formulated to combat some of the most stubborn weeds, including quackgrass (Agropyron repens) and silky bentgrass (Apera spica-venti). It is equally effective against a broad spectrum of dicots, such as white goosefoot, shepherd's purse, cleavers, and purple dead-nettle.

Key advantages of the Belgian formulation

• Systemic precision: High efficacy at low application rates (0.013–0.026 kg/ha) makes it a cost-effective choice for modern farm management.
• Optimal formulation: The water-dispersible granules ensure easy handling, precise measuring, and excellent solubility in the tank mix, leaving no residue.
• Single-application efficiency: Designed for a single, targeted pass per season, allowing for efficient timing and reduced labor costs.

Manufactured by Monsanto in Belgium, MONITOR, WG carries the reputation of high-quality European production. It is an essential component of integrated pest management (IPM) strategies for cereal growers who cannot afford the yield loss caused by severe weed pressure. By neutralizing competition at the post-emergence stage, this herbicide allows the wheat crop to maximize its potential during critical growth phases.
