5L Glyphosate Weed Killer for Effective Herbicide Treatment

This 5L glyphosate weed killer, when used as directed, gives highly effective control of most annual and perennial grasses and broad-leaved weeds. It is an advanced glyphosate formulation built on a specialist formulation system that combines reliable weed control and economical use with benefits for both the user and the environment.

Key Features

• Droplet spectrum control: the formulation technology produces a higher proportion of droplets at the optimum size, which helps cut drift and gives more consistent application and dependable results than non-bio formulations
• Specially developed surfactant systems improve safety without reducing field performance
• Not classified as harmful or irritant to users
• Pours smoothly with minimal dripping and foams very little in the sprayer tank

Formulation

• Improved operator safety
• Improved safety to aquatic organisms
• Better handling characteristics
• Reliable, efficient weed control maintained
• Buffering/neutralising action compensates for variable water quality, which can otherwise greatly reduce efficacy, for consistent results

Bio-formulation

• A bio-formulation is one that is not classified as harmful to wildlife or to the user.
• Conventional glyphosate formulations are generally safe for wildlife but are classified as harmful to aquatic organisms; this weed killer is not classified as harmful to aquatic organisms.

Increased coverage

Good coverage of the weed leaf is essential for fast, complete uptake of a herbicide. This formulation lowers the water tension of the spray solution, giving:

• Greater spreading - flatter droplets cover a larger area of the target leaf
• Complete, even distribution of the spray liquid over the leaf surface

Improved entry into the plant

Improved translocation: traditional formulations aggressively strip the wax and leaf surface to let glyphosate in, and some of the glyphosate becomes locked up as plant cells shut down in response to the damage. This formulation instead draws glyphosate rapidly into the plant without stripping the wax.

How to Use

Water volumes from 80l/ha, depending on the situation.
