Doxstar® Pro
Herbicide
Doxstar® Pro is a concentrated formulation controlling all species of docks in established grassland.
Docks are a major problem in UK grassland and can have serious impacts on productivity and palatability of forage. Docks compete with grass for light, nutrients, and moisture, thus reducing grass yields. They have only 65% of the feed value of good grass and are generally unpalatable to livestock. Docks are a long-term problem and, therefore, require a long-term control solution.

Benefits
Translocated to the roots
Doxstar Pro is translocated to the roots ensuring high levels of long-term control.
Short grazing interval
Grazing livestock can be returned to the field just 7 days after application.
Long-term control
The addition inclusion of triclopyr means long-term control of both broad-leaved and curled docks is far better than using fluroxypyr alone. Doxstar Pro also gives excellent control of chickweed.
Application Advice
Use Doxstar Pro on grassland for grazing or silage, hay or haylage. For best results target actively growing docks in the rosette stage and up to 200 mm across or high. If a high proportion of dock plants have seed heads present, it is recommended to cut the docks and to treat the re-growth at the appropriate timing.
Exclude livestock prior to treatment to allow docks to recover from trampling. Allow 4 weeks after spraying before cutting to minimise dying biomass being taken into the silage clamp and to achieve the highest levels of long-term control of docks. If using Doxstar Pro after cutting, allow for sufficient weed regrowth to occur before spraying. This would normally be 2-3 weeks.
