Dicamba Herbicides

Dicamba cropping systems require a volatility reduction agent (VRA) and a drift reduction agent (DRA) , but herbicide efficacy and placement need to also be addressed. 

OnTarget™ is a DRA formulated specifically for dicamba herbicides and reduces driftable fines while allowing less pump shear than any other DRA on the market.
 
InterLock® is the premier deposition aid , canopy penetrant , and drift reducer to make sure that your AI gets the coverage and penetration needed for best coverage possible.
 
Class Act® Ridion® is a non AMS adjuvant that still ties up harmful cations to increase efficacy. It is approved for all dicamba herbicides.
 
Contact your GreenPoint Ag rep for the adjuvants and VRA’s that will give you the best ROI on your herbicide application.
