Pointer 75 WG

Professional Weed Control: Working with Pointer 75 WG

In large-scale grain production, you need a herbicide that acts quickly and selectively. It effectively targets problematic broad-leaved weeds like white goosefoot, pigweed, and catchweed bedstraw without causing phytotoxicity to the crop.

Practical Application and Performance

The formulation in water-dispersible granules is a major operational advantage. It dissolves rapidly in the tank, ensuring that sprayer nozzles remain clog-free throughout the work shift. As a selective herbicide, it works systematically through the leaves, which makes it highly effective even when weeds have already established themselves among the crops.

Key Operational Tips:

• Dosage consistency: Stick to the 0.02–0.05 kg/ha range to ensure the herbicide works at its peak systemic capacity.
• Timing is everything: Since the label allows only one application per season, aim for the window of active weed growth to ensure the tribenuron-methyl gets fully absorbed.
• Reliable Manufacturing: Produced by Cheminova Agro France and DuPont Australia, the product consistently demonstrates high chemical stability, which is reflected in its predictable field results.

It belongs to the 3rd hazard class, so standard PPE is essential during the tank mix preparation. Once applied, you can see weed growth stop within days, allowing your cereals to utilize moisture and nutrients without competition. It is a reliable, no-nonsense tool that provides excellent value for money per hectare.
