Buckler- A flexible replacement for diflufenican isoproturon mixes

If you are looking for a cost-effective substitute for diflufenican and isoproturon products look no further. Buckler can be used in winter wheat and winter barley post-emergence. There is bonus of pre-emergence use in winter wheat which was not possible with isoproturon products

Buckler contains 600g/l chlorotoluron and 25g/l diflufenican. Applied up to 3.75 l/ha it will tackle a wide range of Broadleaved weeds and Annual meadow-grass

In this trial near Derby, Buckler has removed Annual meadow-grass, Red deadnettle, Shepherd’s purse, Chickweed, Common poppy and Thistles, preventing early weed competition. The Buckler treated plot is in the centre of the picture

Key advantages

Pre and post emergence use in winter wheat
Post-emergence use in winter barley
Control of Annual meadow-grass
Control of many key broadleaved weeds in the autumn including Mayweeds not well controlled by many autumn actives
One of very few options for Annual meadow-grass control in winter barley
Prevention of early weed competition
Wide range of compatibilities

Variety restrictions

Certain varieties are unable to tolerate the use of chlorotoluron. It is safe to use Buckler on over 80% of winter wheat and well over 90% of the predicted winter barley crop. Every year Nufarm sponsor a number of variety trials. It is only after 3 year's trials on 2 soil types each year that we are satisfied to add a new variety to our list.
