Acolonifen (sorry if spelt incorrectly) is only released for cereals for the first time this year?
We used Proclus plus Regatta (exactly the same as Liberator as I recall) last year on our worst blackgrass fields. Difficult to say whether it made any difference really but we still had some blackgrass. A bit like Vigon before it (which had an active called flurtamone) which we were also never entirely sure had a great deal more success than just straight flufanacet and dff.
Certainly wouldn't put anyone off using it but it is no magic cure for blackgrass.
Seems like the grass weed in wheat product that they were hoping to get approved this year (think it was called Luximo) has been held up by the approval process and Covid etc.
I found monolith a big improvement over hatraI'm going to give Atlantis a whirl spring 2022. None used before on my farm.
How much more was it per acre? How badly did it knock the crop over hatra?I found monolith a big improvement over hatra

I forget money wise. I didn't think the crop effects were any worse. Tank mixed with 0.3liberator......How much more was it per acre? How badly did it knock the crop over hatra?

Ok, so Liberator is standard. Is Regatta one of these exclusive distributor only products?
Same with Bandur, is Proclus the “proper” mainstream name?
Yes, I am aware of that, but they are completely different active ingredients. Proclus is aclonifen. Luximo is cinmethylin. Not just different manufacturers.Luximo is a BASF product.
Proclus + Libertor/Regatta is the BAYER offer.
