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.
