Surefire Gamma 5L
Manufacturer: PCT International
Surefire GAMMA non-volatile herbicide, containing 200g/L Glufosinate-Ammonium, is now registered for
use in the control of many annual & perennial broadleaf weeds & grasses in orchards, vineyards & olive plantations . Surefire Gamma is absorbed by plant foliage and green stems.
Surefire Gamma Herbicide may be used around trees/vines less than two years old provided they are effectively shielded from spray and spray drift.
The recommended rate of use is determined by the following criteria:
WEED SPECIES:
Apply the appropriate rate to control the least susceptible weed present as per the lists of weeds controlled in the accompanying tables.
WEED STAGE OF GROWTH:
Use the lower rate when weeds are young and succulent (grasses: pre-tillering; broadleaves: cotyledons to 4-leaf) or the population is very sparse.
A median rate should be used for medium sized plants (grasses: tillering; broadleaves: 4-leaf to advanced vegetative) and the high rate should be used when weeds are mature
(grasses: noding to flowering; broadleaves: budding to flowering).
WEED DENSITY:
Use the higher rates when the weed population is dense. Thorough coverage of weeds is essential for good control.
CLIMATIC CONDITIONS;
Best results are achieved when applied under warm humid conditions. Control will be reduced and/or slower under cold conditions and/or overcast conditions. Good results will be achieved under most other conditions, however poor results may occur under hot, dry conditions
(temperature above 33°C with a relative humidity below 50%).
Weeds that have been hardened or stunted in growth due to stressed conditions should be treated at the maximum rate.
COVERAGE:
Complete coverage of weeds is essential for good control. Poor coverage may result in re-growth.
PERENNIAL WEEDS:
Apply when weeds are actively growing. Follow-up treatments will be necessary to control re-growth of perennial weeds in most cases.
Note: Gamma is suitable for application by ground sprayers, boom sprayers, directed spray
Equipment, knapsack/ handgun and controlled droplet application equipment. It is not suitable for aerial application.
