For New Zealand’s fodder beet and forage brassica growers, timing is everything—and so is confidence in your crop protection. That’s why Magister® CS Herbicide continues to be the trusted choice across the country, delivering consistent performance in the paddock season after season.
With its advanced capsule suspension (CS) formulation, Magister® CS offers smooth mixing, even coverage, and reliable control of key broadleaf weeds like Wireweed, Willow weed, Cornbind, Cleavers and Shepherd’s Purse. Developed using FMC’s global formulation expertise, the CS technology ensures the active ingredient is delivered precisely and consistently every time. It’s a formulation that’s stood the test of time—tried, tested, and trusted by Kiwi farmers to get the job done season after season. In a market where new products come and go, Magister® CS has remained a staple because it simply works.
Henry Ross, General Manager of Molloy Agriculture Ltd., knows the value of reliability when the pressure is on. “We always use and recommend Magister® CS,” he says, “as we can’t afford any downtime due to potential formulation issues, so we stick with what we know and trust to help us get the job done time and time again.”
That trust is echoed by mixed arable farmer and Mid Canterbury Federated Farmers Vice Chair, Darryl Oldham, who relies on Magister® CS to stay ahead of weed pressure. “It’s a formulation we trust to work where it matters most,” he explains, “helping us to get the jump on weeds, especially speedwell in our brassicas.”
Agronomists also back its performance. Nick Williams, Director and Agronomist at Cates, highlights the product’s consistency: “We use and recommend Magister® CS because of its excellent formulation and reliable performance in the field. It helps us deliver reliable results for our growers season after season.”
From the Wairarapa through Canterbury, Otago and down to Southland, Magister® CS continues to earn its place in New Zealand’s cropping systems. When conditions are unpredictable and timing is tight, it’s the herbicide growers turn to with confidence—because when it matters most, Magister® CS delivers.
