    Worked well on Cape Weed, even on dense patches, it took a bit longer to die (1 or 2 weeks) but stopped new growth and flowering immediately. Have also used on other weeds with good effect. Will kill some grasses but will leave other grass types alone.

    We have been using grazon for quite a few years now. Can’t believe the difference in our 2.5 acres. The weeds are almost non existent and the grass grows beautifully each winter. Will not use anything else where there is grass now. Specialist sales very easy to order from, no hassles with delivery or product.

    This product significantly reduced the amount of Patterson’s Curse, Capeweed and other woody weeds from cropping up from last season when I sprayed with Grazon Extra. So much so in fact that I was able to spot spray this season the little amount of weeds that popped up, with the backpack rather than using the boom on 12 acres. Thoroughly recommend this product if you have horses and have to deal with Patterson’s Curse, Capeweed and other woody weeds.

Features & Benefits

  • Grazon Extra includes the active ingredients Picloram and Triclopyr used in Grazon DS, plus the new ingredient Aminopyralid.’  
  • ‘Extra’ Tough on Noxious Weeds & Woody Weeds.  
  • Grazon Extra is registered to control of a range of environmental, noxious woody and herbaceous weeds.  
  • Grazon Extra moves quickly to the tips of growing shoots and roots, where the active ingredients disrupt plant growth. Exceptional results include rapid “brown-out”.  
  • It is the premium option for foliar spraying of tough-to-kill woody weeds and many noxious herbaceous weeds.
  • Acts on both foliage and roots to provide rapid brownout of leaves, dry-down of stems and destruction of the root mass to prevent regrowth.
  • Leaf brownout and distortion of stem tips will normally be obvious within a week of application.
  • Ingredients remain active in the soil and prevent seeds of the target woody plants and secondary weeds from germinating for many months after application (in some cases up to two years).
  • Controls the target weeds without harming pasture grasses.
  • Grazon Extra offers control of the broadest list of weeds in a single product on the market.

Directions Of Use

Click here for Grazon Extra Herbicide Directions for Use

Application Rate:

  • For most weeds, the rate of Grazon Extra to apply is between 350 and 500 mL per 100 litres of water.
  • Always check the label for the correct rate.

Application Methods:

  • Apply as a foliar spot spray to completely wet all leaves and stems. Coverage should be to the point of run-off in that the chemical mix is just beginning to drip from the leaves once the spraying is completed. Think of painting a wall and use that motion in your spray action to achieve full coverage of the foliage, then use a more directed stream to thoroughly treat the stems and canes.
  • This type of application is called high volume spraying as you are applying a large amount of spray mixture to the target weeds. Provided that good coverage of the target weed is possible, high volume spraying can be completed using a variety of equipment – from a small hand pump unit to a knapsack sprayer through to a large motorised pump and handgun unit.
  • With a foliar spray you are looking to capture enough chemical on the foliage to kill not only the above-ground portion of the weed but all of the root mass as well, so good coverage is essential. If you are spraying very large weeds like blackberries that are several years old, ensure that canes on the inside, as well as the outside of the foliage mass, receive direct contact with the applied spray. 
  • As a guide, one hectare of blackberries 1–2 metres in height will typically require a spray volume of 3000–4000 litres to be thoroughly covered, whilst the same area of a small herbaceous weed such as ragwort will require 500–1000 litres. 
  • Always refer to the label & directions before using, as some conditions apply to certain weeds, areas of use etc.  Further details of use can be found in the Direction of Use section on the Product Label.

Rates are a general guide only. Before opening, carefully read Grazon Extra Herbicide Directions for Use, Precautionary and Protection Statements, Storage and Disposal, Safety Directions and First Aid Instructions.

Questions and answers from customers

    We are hoping to overseed a cover crop and regen grass seed mix into our struggling paddocks. We were thinking of using grazon extra to kill any existing weeds but have just heard from a neighbouring farmer that although grazon does not impact current grasses, it could impact seed uptake/germination for 14 months. Is this right?

    Grazon Extra, which contains aminopyralid and picloram, can remain active in the soil for extended periods depending on the rate of application, soil type (clay content), rainfall, temperature, humidity, soil moisture and soil organic matter. Grazon registered 'directions of use' contain detailed information regarding minimum re-cropping periods. These can be found under the 'SDS & Technical' tab on each product page on the Specialist Sales website.  For further clarification, contact the manufacturer Corteva Agriscience p. 1800 700 096

    Asked by Peter Gillies on November 29, 2024 8:51 am

    Grazon Extra does not list Bidgee Widgee as a weed registered to control. However, as Bidgee Widgee is a member of the Rosaceae family, it will likely be very susceptible to this herbicide. As Bidge Widgee is not listed on Grazon's label, it would be considered 'off-label' use, whereby the manufacturer does not guarantee results.

    Asked by Peter on October 10, 2024 1:26 pm
    Answered by the admin

    Grazon Extra does not control Ivy and should not be used in domestic garden situations. Aminopyralid and Picloram used in Grazon Extra have a lasting residual effect in the soil. Very few products are registered to control Ivy. However, herbicides made with Triclopyr (e.g., Garlon 600 Herbicide) are registered to control English Ivy when mixed with Glyphosate (Roundup). Note that this is a non-selective option and shouldn't be sprayed on Ivy growing on trees, etc. Please ensure you read the label and SDS before purchase and use. These can be found under the 'SDS & Technical' tab on each product page on the Specialist Sales website.

    Herbicides made from Fluroxypyr (ie Starane Advanced, Fireball 400, Sabakem Fluroxypyr 400) are effective in controlling Wandering Jew or Trad (Tradescantia albiflora) and Cobblers Pegs (Bidens pilosa) in agricultural non-crop areas, commercial and industrial areas, forests, pastures and rights-of-way. To the best of our knowledge, there are no herbicides registered to control Callisia repens (creeping inch plant); as you have mentioned, Callisia repens is growing in similar areas to the Tradescantia albiflora; you may want to undertake an 'off-label' trial at your own risk. Adding a surfactant/ penetrant (i.e. Consume or Eurochem) can enhance the results you achieve and is highly recommended when spraying hard-to-kill, noxious, and woody weeds. To the best of our knowledge, no pre-emergent herbicides are registered to control Cobblers Pegs (Bidens pilosa).

     Grazon Extra Herbicide is registered to control Eucalypt regrowth via foliar application. Grazon Extra Herbicide requires foliar contact with plants to be effective. Therefore, plants not directly sprayed or impacted by spray drift will not be affected by the spray, and it does not shift in the soil to affect nearby species.

    The visible damage to lantana from herbicides can be slow, appearing over weeks. Wilting, yellowing and dieback of the leaves occur, which then advances to complete browning of aboveground growth and deterioration of root stems. When using most knockdown herbicides, complete brownout occurs in 4–6 weeks, and death of the plant occurs in 9–12 weeks. Lantana should not be slashed or disturbed until the plant is completely dead and the root system has deteriorated.

    Although Grazon Extra Herbicide is registered to control blackberry, it should not be applied when the herbicide may end up in a waterway. Grazon Extra Herbicide should not be used under weather conditions or from spraying equipment that may cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops, cropping lands, pastures, waterways or native vegetation. You should also ensure that physical spray drift onto waterways, native vegetation and susceptible crops is not allowed. There are also individual state and council laws that need to be investigated before the application of herbicides around waterways. Do not burn off, cut or clear blackberry or other woody weeds for at least six months after spraying.

    Grazon Extra is formulated to be applied to actively growing foliage. Grazon Extras 'directions for use' don't recommend 'cut stump'/ 'brush cut' as a suitable application method. Grazon can be applied as a foliar application to new gum & wattle regrowth after slashing. Other herbicides recommended for cut stump applications, such as Access Herbicide & Tordon Regrowthmaster, need to be applied to the cut stump immediately, as the sap will set very quickly and repel the application of herbicides.

    Grazon Extra Herbicide is a selective herbicide designed to kill woody weeds that are broadleaf species. It is not recommended for killing grasses, so it is important to ensure that you are targeting the correct type of weed before using this herbicide. Unfortunately, Lomandra and Swamp Grass are not broadleaf species, so they are unlikely to be affected by Grazon Extra, and Tea Tree is not listed as a species controlled on the Grazon Extra label. The recommended method to control Tea Trees includes Garlon 600 or Access Herbicide, either applied as a basal bark spray or cut stump application. Alternatively, Tordon Regrowthmaster can also be applied via stem injection. Lomandra, Swamp Grass & various rush species are very difficult to control. A general 'off-label' method is often used whereby the old, hard leaves/growth is removed. Once new growth appears, it should be sprayed with a potent mix of glyphosate and penetrant. Repeat applications are likely to be required.

    Adding a surfactant/ adjuvant /or penetrant to the tank mix with Grazon Extra will ensure a better result, particularly when plants have waxy or hairy foliage. Surfactants/ adjuvants /or penetrants maximize spray application by wetting and sticking the herbicide to the plant by lowering the surface tension of the spray droplet. Penetrants (i.e. Consume Penetrant) also assist in penetrating the plant by forcing the active ingredient deep inside the weed tissue, where it is translocated to the root system, creating a greater success rate in completely eradicating the weed.

    When added to other active ingredients, such as triclopyr & picloram, aminopyralid can enhance the effectiveness of the herbicide by providing additional control of certain broadleaf weed species. Aminopyralid disrupts the growth and development of the target weeds, leading to their eventual death. It's also important to be aware of the potential for aminopyralid to persist in the soil for an extended period.

    Grazon Extra Herbicide is registered to target specific species (mainly broadleaf) without harming grasses. Grazon Extra is unlikely to have any effect on controlling bamboo. Bamboo Grass is usually sprayed with Flupropanate or Glyphosate Herbicides. Flupropanate is currently unavailable, possibly returning to market later in 2023. Glyphosate can be applied as a Spot spray. Remove tops of bamboo shoots and spot spray actively growing foliage and regrowth 1–2 m high.

    Asked by John on April 13, 2023 4:52 pm
    Answered by the admin

    Although not stated on the Grazon Extra Herbicide label, removing horses while spraying is considered the best practice. The re-entry period is usually long enough for the chemical to dry and be translocated through the plant. Twenty-four hours would be more than adequate. You do need to be aware of any plants that may become poisonous once sprayed. Toxic plants may become more palatable after spraying, and stock should be kept away from these plants until they have died down. Many plants remain poisonous after death, and stock should not be allowed access, as there is a likelihood that they may graze the dead material. Such material should be burnt if possible. The Withholding Periods for Grazon Extra only apply to livestock destined for slaughter or export markets. Grazon Extra should not kill the grass if it is applied at the correct rates. If the chemical is being used by high-volume hand spraying, the volume of the chemical may be applied higher than recommended, so care must be taken. The result may be some damage to the grass due to phytotoxicity.

    Grazon Extra Herbicide contains two active ingredients that can persist in the soil for a lengthy period after application. Picloram degrades very slowly, with half-lives in the soil ranging from 167 to 513 days. Aminopyralid photodegrades slowly in soil, at a moderate rate depending on the soil type, with a half-life range of about 31.5 days to 193 days. These residues may affect the health of fruit trees if they are still present in the soil.

    Grazon Extra Herbicide is not registered to control Ivy.  We suggest looking at Garlon 600 Herbicide as it has claims to control English Ivy (when mixed with Glyphosate).  Research on this product is strongly recommended, and care must be undertaken as Garlon will kill trees and other woody, broadleaf species.  Do not treat Ivy growing up trees or on other plants as the host's death may result.

    Grazon Extra Herbicide @ 35-50mL per 10L Water

    Metsulfuron Methyl Herbicide @ 1gm per 10L Water

    Grazon Extra Herbicide is not recommended or registered for domestic applications and definitely not in turf situations.  The active ingredients in Grazon Extra can cause severe damage or death to off-target species in domestic areas plus there is also residual concerns with the Aminopyralid that you would not want in a garden situation.

  117. Q Is there an ideal pH that maximises the efficiency of Grazon Extra Herbicide?
    Asked by Phillip Gely on January 20, 2022 9:09 am
    Answered by the admin

    Grazon Extra Herbicide does not have an optimum pH level for use listed on the products label.  If you are worried about the quality of the water being mixed with the Grazon Extra, you should consider the option to use an Acidifying/buffering agent.  Acidifying/buffering agents adjust the pH of alkaline or acidic water and minimise decomposition of the pesticide through alkaline hydrolysis.  We recommend the best results will be achieved with Grazon Extra when mixed with a Polyether Modified Polysiloxane Adjuvant such as Pulse, Eurochem, or Consume.  These adjuvants spread, stick and forces the chemical into the plant

    Grazon Extra Herbicide is not registered or recommended for use in domestic gardens.  Grazon targets broadleaf species, so it will be lethal on plants such as roses, hedges, shrubs & trees.  The Aminopyralid & Picloram used to make Grazon Extra have residual effects.  The main herbicides that can contaminate soils and compost include Aminopyralid and Picloram, both found in Grazon Extra.  Grazon Extra is not recommended for use on any turf or lawn situations.  It will definitely kill broadleaf lawn species such as Buffalo Turf.

    The best practice is to keep your dogs away from any sprayed areas until the spray has dried.  As dogs do not 'graze' on grass as a food source, the risk of them ingesting a toxic quantity is very low.

    Asked by Mariola Nelson on October 1, 2021 9:57 am
    Answered by the admin

    Although not stated on the products label, removing horses while you are spraying is considered best practice.  The reentry period is usually long enough for the chemical to dry and be translocated through the plant.  24-hours would be more than adequate.

    You do need to be aware of any plants that may become poisonous once sprayed.  Poisonous plants may become more palatable after spraying and stock should be kept away from these
    plants until they have died down.  Many plants remain poisonous after death, and stock
    should not be allowed access, as there is a likelihood that they may graze the dead material. Such material should be burnt if possible.

    The Withholding Periods for Grazon Extra are only applicable for livestock destined for slaughter or export markets.

Tips For Use

Equipment Required for Application:

Depending on the Size of the Job at Hand:

  • Large dense infestations (for example, large, old dense blackberry stands) are best treated with a large motorised pump and handgun unit. This equipment can often be hired or a contract spray applicator can be engaged.
  • However, a suitable knapsack or hand pump spray unit will suffice in many situations, provided that good coverage can be achieved (to the point of run-off).
  • Ideally use a spray unit that is dedicated for application of herbicides only (to avoid cross contamination).
  • Measuring jug.
  • Cotton overalls or long-sleeved shirt and long pants.
  • Washable hat.
  • Elbow-length PVC gloves.
  • Safety glasses or face shield.

Correct Mixing Procedure:

  • If possible, mix Grazon Extra with clean water sourced from town supply or a rainwater tank, although any source of clean water may be used. Avoid using water that is particularly ‘hard’ or strongly alkaline as that may reduce herbicide efficacy. Half fill the spray tank with water then add the Grazon Extra before adding the remainder of the water. If the product label requires the addition of a spray oil, penetrant or wetting agent to assist in control your particular weed population, mix in once the spray tank is full. 
  • Once mixed, the spray solution should ideally be kept agitated and used immediately. However, if circumstances conspire to interrupt spraying, a mixture of Grazon Extra and water can be stored for up to seven days, provided that it is intermittently agitated each day, and well agitated again before use.

Application Timing for Best Results:

  • In general, smaller weeds are easier to control than large ones. 
  • Grazon Extra is most effective when applied to weeds that are not stressed due to lack of moisture, excessive heat, insect or pathogen (such as rust) damage, etc. and are actively growing. Actively growing weeds will draw the chemical into the vascular system and transport it through the stems and down to the roots to ensure maximum efficacy.
  • Grazon Extra needs to penetrate into the leaves of treated weeds before any rainfall occurs so do not make applications if rain is possible before the spray is completely dry – usually one hour. Similarly, avoid application if the leaves are wet from rainfall or dew.
  • Once the weeds have been sprayed leave them undisturbed so that the chemical is able to move throughout the leaves, stems and roots and provide complete kill. Disturbing the weeds by slashing, burning, mulching, etc. before the chemical is fully distributed will compromise the control achieved. We recommend that blackberries and other woody weeds not be disturbed for six months after spraying to maximise the performance of Grazon Extra.

First Aid:

  • If poisoning occurs contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre. Phone Australia 131 126.
  • For further information, refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS).

Withholding Period

Withholding Period Details (WHP):

  • Pasture: Cutting or grazing pastures for stock food: Not required when used as directed.
  • Livestock destined for export markets: The grazing withholding period only applies to stock slaughtered for the domestic market. Some export markets apply different standards. To meet these standards, ensure that in addition to complying with the grazing withholding period, the export slaughter interval is observed before stock are sold or slaughtered.
  • Export Slaughter Interval (ESI) – 3 days
  • Livestock that has been grazed on or fed treated crops within 42 days of application should be placed on clean feed for 3 days prior to slaughter.
  • Export Grazing Interval (EGI) – 42 days:
  • Livestock that has been grazing on treated crops or pasture should not be sold for export slaughter for 42 days (6 weeks) after application of chemical product, unless the export slaughter interval has been observed. When grazon extra is used as directed and the above withholding periods and/or export intervals are observed, treated grain and livestock commodities are considered acceptable for export. However, export requirements are subject to change. Consult your exporter for updated information about specific market requirements
