Description
ProForce Monterey aquatic surfactant is a non-ionic penetrating adjuvant from Indigo Specialty Products. It contains 350 g/L soyal phospholipids and 350 g/L propionic acid. The natural surfactants come from soybean oils. Therefore, the product improves spreading and penetration across herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, foliar fertilisers and plant growth regulators.
The formulation also works as a spray tank acidifier. It lowers spray solution pH, in most cases to between 4 and 5. As a result, it reduces losses from alkaline hydrolysis. It also improves the uptake of weak acid herbicides. In addition, Monterey assists droplet size management to reduce fine droplets from hydraulic nozzles.
Monterey aquatic surfactant for weed control in and around water
Monterey suits weed control in aquatic situations. It pairs well with aquatically approved herbicides. These include glyphosate, flumioxazin, diquat and amitrole. Because it is non-ionic, it avoids negative reactions with pesticide chemistry.
Compatibility and restraints
Growers should follow two key restraints. First, do not use Monterey with copper products. Second, do not mix it with sulfonyl urea chemistry. This group includes metsulfuron methyl, trifloxysulfuron sodium, foramsulfuron and rimsulfuron products. The product is for professional use only.
Frequently asked questions
Q. What is ProForce Monterey aquatic surfactant used for?
A. It improves spreading and penetration of spray mixes. Growers add it to herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, foliar fertilisers and plant growth regulators. It also acidifies the spray solution.
Q. Is Monterey aquatic surfactant safe to use near water?
A. Monterey is an aquatic-approved adjuvant. Therefore, growers can use it for weed control in aquatic situations. Still, avoid contaminating wetlands or watercourses with product or containers.
Q. What rate of Monterey should I use?
A. The rate depends on the job. For most tank mixes, use 250 to 500 mL per 100 L. For pH reduction, use 100 mL per 100 L. Always use the higher rate on stressed weeds.
Q. Can I mix Monterey with any herbicide?
A. No. Do not use it with copper products. Also, do not mix it with sulfonyl urea chemistry. Check each tank mix partner label first.
Q. Does Monterey reduce spray drift?
A. It helps reduce fine droplets from flat fan nozzles. However, it does not eliminate off-target movement. Good spraying practice and correct nozzle choice still matter.
