Controlling weeds effectively: My experience with Tomigan CE

When fields start getting overwhelmed by bindweed or ragweed, time is a luxury I don't have. My experience with "Tomigan CE" from Adama Agan Ltd. (Israel) shows it’s one of the most reliable systemic herbicides for broad-leaved weed control. It’s my go-to "insurance" policy: applied post-emergence on the leaves, it clears the field just when the crop needs protection the most.

Why I rely on this product

The biggest advantage of "Tomigan" is its selectivity. When applying it to winter wheat, barley, or corn, I’m confident that the crops won't suffer from chemical stress. The active ingredient, fluroxypyr, penetrates the weed tissue rapidly, halting growth from the inside out. Following the recommended dosage of 0.3–0.7 L/ha is key; it’s more than enough to wipe out even tough weeds like cleavers or chickweed.

Practical field insights

• Systemic action: The product translocates throughout the plant, ensuring that even partially covered weeds eventually perish.
• Versatility: It performs consistently against both delicate species like common chickweed and stubborn threats like ragweed and black nightshade.
• Resource efficiency: One application per season is sufficient, which simplifies field logistics and reduces machinery wear and tear.

The emulsifiable concentrate formulation is easy to work with: the tank mix is stable, doesn't settle, and keeps my spray nozzles clear. As with any class 3 hazard product, safety gear like masks and gloves is mandatory, but in the field, it’s a trouble-free solution. It doesn't react poorly to temperature fluctuations, ensuring consistent performance that translates into a higher-quality harvest.
