DICOHERB® SUPER, SL (DICOHERB® SUPER, SL)

Why professionals choose DICOHERB® SUPER

When fields are under pressure from perennial weeds, standard solutions often fail to deliver. The Austrian-engineered DICOHERB® SUPER, SL from Nufarm is designed to ensure weed-free crops of winter cereals and corn in a single pass. It is a classic systemic herbicide that targets not just the foliage, but the root systems of aggressive weeds.

Synergistic power against resistant invaders

The unique formula lies in the combination of Dicamba, MCPA, and Phenoxypropionic acid derivatives. Unlike mono-preparations, this blend acts comprehensively: while one component halts growth, the other causes deep physiological disruptions within the weed's vascular system. This creates a highly effective solution for problematic weeds such as field bindweed, common lambsquarters, pigweed, wild mustard, and cleavers.

Key strengths and limitations

• Selectivity: Perfectly suited for use on wheat, barley, and corn without causing crop stress when application rates are followed.
• Systemic action: Absorbed through the leaves, the active ingredients move throughout the plant, reaching the roots—a critical factor for perennial weed control.
• Efficiency on tough weeds: Handles species with well-developed root systems where contact herbicides often fall short.
• Application requirements: Strict adherence to crop growth stages and temperature windows is essential. The preparation requires precision in dosage (0.5 – 1.0 L/ha) to prevent any potential phytotoxicity.

For farmers focused on yield, DICOHERB® SUPER offers a level of reliability that budget alternatives cannot match. It is an optimal choice for operations where cereals and corn dominate the crop rotation and broadleaf weed pressure is significant.
