Uragan WG Herbicide

Tips For Use

How to get the best results for Uragan WG Herbicide:

• If weeds are already present, Uragan should be applied with a non-selective knockdown herbicide, such as Glyphosate, Glufosinate or Paraquat.
• Add a non-ionic surfactant (Wetter 1000) at 100 mL/100 L (0.1% v/v) of spray solution for best results. 
• Apply within ten (10) weeks of germination of winter weeds. 
• Long-term residual control may be less effective if heavy organic matter loads prevent the active ingredient from reaching the soil or root zone. 
• Best results will be achieved if rain occurs within a week of application.

General Instructions:

• For best results, apply to moist, well-prepared trash and clod-free soil shortly before weed growth occurs. 
• Well-established weeds should be removed before applying the product. 
• Actively growing weeds up to about 10 cm in height may be controlled, but a wetting agent must be used.
• Do not cultivate soil surface after application as efficacy may be reduced and/or crop injury may result.
• For best results, sufficient moisture, either by rainfall or irrigation, is required within 3 – 4 days of treatment to carry the product into the soil. 
• With irrigation, thoroughly wet the entire area. 
• Where rainfall is limited during the growth period, control of deep-rooted hard-to-kill weeds will not be satisfactory.

Restraints:

• Do not allow spray to contact foliage or fruit of desirable plants.
• For best results, sufficient moisture, either by rainfall or irrigation, is required within 3 – 4 days of treatment to carry the product into the soil.

Application:

Large areas

• Use a fixed boom sprayer or handgun. 
• The strainer and nozzle screens should be 50 mesh or coarser to prevent nozzle blockage.
• Always agitate in the spray tank to keep the material in suspension.
• (a) Fixed Boom Sprayer
  • Use 1000 – 2000 L/ha water for industrial weed control.
  • Use 250 – 450 L/Ha at 200 – 300 kPa pressure for selective weed control.
• (b) Handgun
  • Use 1000 – 2000 L/Ha and 60 – 800 kPa pressure.

Small areas

• Use a knapsack or pressurised hand sprayer, or water can.
• Shake or stir frequently.

Re-Entry Periods:

• After treating asparagus or pineapple, do not allow entry into treated areas for 14 days unless wearing cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist over normal clothing and chemical-resistant gloves. 
• Clothing must be laundered after each day’s use. 
• After treating citrus, do not allow entry into treated areas for three (3) days unless wearing cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist over normal clothing and chemical-resistant gloves. 
• Clothing must be laundered after each day’s use.

Protection Of Crops, Native And Other Non-Target Plants:

• Do not apply, drain, or flush equipment on or near desirable trees or other plants or where their roots may extend.
• Movement of soil from treated areas should be avoided because damage to off-target species may occur.
• Do not spray under weather conditions or from sprayer equipment that may cause spray to drift over nearby susceptible plants or crops, cropping lands or pastures.
• Asparagus: Do not apply to newly seeded asparagus, to young plants during the first growing season after setting or to plants with exposed roots.
• Citrus: Use with caution on light sandy soils as yellowing may occur.
• Treated area for asparagus and citrus – Do not replant any crops within three (3) years of the last application, as injury may occur.
• Pineapples: Only pineapples can be replanted into the same area within the 3-year plan.

Protection Of Wildlife, Fish, Crustaceans And the Environment:

• Do not contaminate streams, rivers or waterways with the chemical or used containers.

Storage:

• Store in the original closed container in a dry, well-ventilated area, as cool as possible, out of direct sunlight.
