Depitone Ultra - Selective Herbicide 5L

Depitone Ultra is a powerful selective herbicide containing 2,4-D in an ethyl ester formation. This is absorbed quicker at lower temperatures than other commonly used forms of the active ingredient. This makes it an ideal choice for effective weed control in the spring when weeds are actively growing, and flower buds are beginning to form.

For use as a selective herbicide for the control of weeds in winter and spring cereals, grassland (agricultural and amenity uses) and managed amenity turf.

Excellent control of Ragwort, Buttercup, Plantains, Dandelion, Daisy, Docks, Nettles and Thistle species.

Active ingredients: 600 g/l (55 % w/w) 2,4-D formulated as the 2 Ethylhexyl Ester – Emulsifiable Concentrate.

Maximum rates in grassland:

• 2.0 l/ha in permanent & rotational grassland
• 2.0 l/ha in amenity grassland and managed amenity turf
• All grass must be at least 6 months old
• 1 application per year and 2 weeks grazing interval
• Apply in 200 – 500 litres of water to actively growing weeds

Advantages of ester formulation vs 2,4-D amine:

• Better efficacy in cold conditions such as Springtime for early Ragwort Control
• Lower use rates
• More rainfast
• Faster acting
• Improved compatibility and mixing
• Not affected by hard water
