Felix w.g.

Field cleaning made easy: experience with «Felix w.g.»

When preparing a field for sowing or clearing weeds before harvest, selecting the right herbicide is a matter of both economics and crop quality. «Felix w.g.» from DVA Chemicals is a systemic glyphosate-based herbicide that has proven itself in real field conditions. The water-dispersible granule formulation is a major upgrade compared to liquid concentrates: no spills, no sticky residue in the sprayer tank, and very convenient handling for the operator.

Application tips and field efficiency

We’ve deployed this broad-spectrum herbicide on various crops, including winter rapeseed, soybeans, and corn. Because it is systemic, it translocates through the leaves to the root system, which is crucial for tackling stubborn perennial weeds like couch grass or thistles. It’s not an instant-kill solution, but rather a thorough one—the herbicide travels deep into the roots to ensure the weeds don't bounce back.

• Equipment friendliness: The granules dissolve rapidly, creating a homogeneous solution that passes through nozzles without clogging. This saves us from having to stop for maintenance during critical spraying windows.
• Double utility: Beyond its role as a herbicide, we successfully use «Felix w.g.» as a desiccant for flax and cereals. It promotes uniform maturation, allowing for a smoother harvest and reducing moisture levels in the grain.
• Operational safety: Being a class 3 hazard, it requires standard protective gear, but the granulated form significantly reduces dust inhalation risks compared to traditional powders, making the mixing process much safer for the operator.

A pro-tip when using this product from DVA Chemicals: monitor your water quality. Glyphosate can be sensitive to hard water, so using a conditioner if necessary will maximize the performance. «Felix w.g.» is a reliable tool for any agronomist looking to keep their fields weed-free. If applied correctly, respecting the growth stage of the weeds and the weather conditions, it delivers 100% of its promised efficacy.
