Application Tips
The activity of Everest GBX combined with tank mix partner herbicides are influenced by weather conditions.
Optimum activity requires active crop and weed growth. The temperature range for optimum activity is 12°C to
24
°C. Reduced activity will occur when temperatures are below 8°C or above 27°C. Frost before application (3 days)
or shortly after (3 days) may reduce weed control and crop tolerance. Weed control may be reduced during stress
conditions or if weed populations are heavy or too far advanced
How it Works
Flucarbazone sodium is a systemic herbicide that is absorbed by both leaves and roots and moves rapidly to the
growing point of the plant. Fluroxypyr moves within the plant to control exposed and underground plant tissue.
It mimics naturally occurring plant hormones and controls weeds by disrupting normal plant growth patterns.
Symptoms include twisting of stems and swollen nodes.
Expected Results
Flucarbazone sodium causes growth of susceptible plants to stop soon after application. Symptoms include
discolouration (yellowing, reddening and purpling), and complete control may take 1 to 2 weeks. Fluroxypyr causes
broadleaf weeds to twist shortly after application. After twisting and bending, plants stop growing, turn brown and
die.
