Weed control in winter wheat: real-world insights on Buksir Plus

When dealing with broad-leaved weeds in winter wheat, timing and the right active ingredient are everything. Using «Buksir Plus, SL» from Shandong Weifang Rainbow, I have found that dicamba remains a robust solution for fields struggling with bindweed, cleavers, and chickweed. As an operator, I appreciate a chemical that doesn't complicate the spraying process, and this water-soluble concentrate is straightforward to handle.

Operational performance and handling

The convenience of a water-soluble concentrate cannot be overstated. It mixes perfectly in the spray tank without clogging nozzles, which saves significant time during peak agricultural seasons. Being a systemic, selective herbicide, it moves through the weed's plant tissue quickly, delivering visible results within a few days of application.

• Dosage: I typically apply 0.8–1.2 L/ha. This range is sufficient to take down tough weeds like common lambsquarters and knotweed varieties.
• Selectivity: It acts as a selective herbicide, meaning if you hit the right growth stage, the wheat stays healthy and competitive while the weeds die off.
• Safety and Maintenance: With a hazard class of 3, standard safety protocols are essential. Maintenance-wise, the product is non-corrosive to equipment if you rinse your sprayers thoroughly after use.

Best practices for application

Since this is a post-emergence herbicide, it is vital to time the application correctly. Because the label limits you to one treatment per season, you cannot afford to miss the window when weeds are most vulnerable. I’ve found that applying Buksir Plus while the weeds are in active growth is the key to achieving a clean field. It’s a reliable product from Shandong Weifang Rainbow that provides the necessary control without unnecessary complexity, keeping the wheat crop clear of competition from start to harvest.
