Growers Talk
The scientists agree that Infinity is in a class of its own, but what do growers think?

We thought Infinity worked very quickly. Weeds started to dry down within 4 to 5 days after spraying while the crop looked very good. We tank-mixed Infinity with Puma®120 Super , and there was no difference between the spring wheat in the Infinity plot and our check strip. We watch our herbicide rotations pretty closely and, because Infinity contains an active ingredient that belongs to a new group, that will make it a lot easier to manage weed resistance.

We have some round-leaved mallow and kochia on the farm, and Infinity did a good job on both of them. Chances are that a lot of the kochia in our area is resistant to Group 2 chemistry, so we were very pleased with the results. We got good control of hemp-nettle, as well. By using Infinity to clean up hemp-nettle in cereals, we hope it will be less of a problem in flax. We'll definitely be using Infinity down the road. It's a good fit for our farm and offers a new rotation option to manage resistance.

We tank-mixed Infinity with Puma120 Super and were very pleased with results. There was no antagonism, the wheat looked good, and Infinity's activity was excellent. Kochia has become a big problem in our area, and Infinity did a good job of controlling it. There's no residue, and Infinity is a new group - we're very impressed with the product.
- Clayton Kuchinka, Future Four Farms Ltd., Macoun, Sask.
Kochia has come out of nowhere to become our No. 1 weed problem, and Infinity did the best job on it of any chemical we've ever used. Infinity was easy to handle - we didn't have to use a surfactant - and the Horizon + Infinity tank mix worked really well. We're also worried about herbicide resistance, and it will be nice to have a new mode of action to manage resistance.
- Shaun Dyrland, Kyle, Sask.
Infinity is the probably the fastest working chemical we've ever used. We could see symptoms on weeds within 24 hours of application, and weeds were dead within a week. We were very pleased with the job that Infinity did on kochia. We've become very reliant on Group 2 chemicals to control kochia, so having a product from a new group is really going to help.
- Paul Hofer, Crop Boss, Arm River Colony, Lumsden, Sask.
We were very pleased with Infinity's activity on cleavers and volunteer canola, and it mixed easily with Puma120 Super for control of wild oats and green foxtail. Infinity's concentrated formulation was nice to handle, too. Being a new mode of action is another thing we like about Infinity. Everyone is worried about resistance, so it's nice to have a new tool that we can use in our rotations.
- Glenn Helgason, Foam Lake, Sask.
Infinity did a terrific job on volunteer flax, cleavers and wild buckwheat. From our experience, there are chemicals that will control some of these weeds but not all of them if they are in the same field. Infinity is the first chemical we've used that did the job. There's also a lot of Group 2 resistant kochia in our area, so having a new mode of action is very, very important for us.
- Blair Goethals, Deloraine, Man.
We were very impressed with both crop safety and how quickly Infinity worked. We could not see any difference between spring wheat sprayed with a tank mix of Infinity + Puma120 Super and the untreated check strip. And the weeds, mainly smartweed and some Canada thistle, were dead within a week after application. Based on the results we got with Infinity, we'd certainly use it again and would also recommend Infinity to anyone who grows spring wheat.
