Critical comments
Aid to Cultivation
to minimise
cultivation and
prepare a clean
bed for sowing.
Annual grass and broadleaf weed
control.
Early autumn sowing.

ACT only.
1.2 to 1.6 L
Where cultivation follows spraying, it may commence one
hour after spraying but should be completed within 7 days.
Where heavy weed growth is present at spraying a better
seedbed will result if cultivation is delayed 3-5 days. Use
the higher rates for dense, more mature weed stands. Wild
oats must have at least two leaves. Where diquat is used
the lower Macro Protect Paraquat 250 SL Herbicide rate
should be sufficient to control
