That's straight product prices from A***i, probably not as low as some will pay as I don't buy a lot. I don't think I'll be trying Elatus Era at that price :(
Full dose of Elatus is 1.0, Syngenta will support 0.8 I believe, that's £40/ha

Adexar full dose is 2.0 but highest generally considered is 1.5 l/ha, slightly lower option is 1.25 l/ha, about £40/ha on your prices.

Same calculation for Ascra (full dose 1.5) - £53/ha, reduced dose (1.25) £43/ha

So many get put off by the '£50/l' tag on Elatus, they should have made it £49.99 !

Surely most would use Adexar at 1l/ha or 1.25 max. or 1.0l Aviator.

Ignoring £/l prices, I certainly wouldn't like to be pushing much above £30/ha at current wheat prices. Jonathan Blake usually suggests half label rate is about right for in field situations.
