Glyphosate 540 20L, Max-Out, Potassium Salt (Herbicide)

Max-Out 540 Glyphosate is a non-residual, non-selective Herbicide for Weed control prior to planting Crops and Pasture, prior to harvesting some Crops and for General Weed control in Horticulture, Agriculture, and Forestry. Max-Out 540 Glyphosate is absorbed by green Plant tissue, and is translocated throughout the Plant, including the root system, to kill the entire Plant.
Active ingredient:
540 g/L GLYPHOSATE as the potassium salt in the form of a soluble concentrate.
Key Benefits:
- Low Foaming.
- Better Translocation.
- Potassium Salt Formulation - Increased Plant Uptake.
- Non-selective, non-residual Systemic Herbicide.
Used For Weed Control In:
- Agriculture.
- Horticulture.
- Forestry.
- Pasture Renewal.
- Orchards and Vineyards.
- Industrial Areas.
- Turf Establishment.
How It Works:
- Absorbed through leaves and green stems.
- Translocated throughout the plant into the root system.
- Kills both above-ground and underground plant parts.
- Inactivated on contact with soil, so it provides no residual weed control.
Rainfastness.
- Rain within 2 hours may reduce effectiveness.
- When used with Pennitr8 Penetrant, rainfastness may be reduced to 30 minutes..
