Application Information
How to Apply
:
With ground equipment or aircraft.
Achieve Liquid
: 200
mL/acre.
Approve
: 500
mL/acre.
Turbocharge
: 0.5
L/100 L of spray solution.
One case treats 20 acres.
Water volume
: 20 - 40
L/acre.
Hard water
:
Add ammonium sulfate at 0.75 - 1.5 kg /100 L (7.5 - 15 lb/100 gallons) of water when water analysis
indicates bicarbonate (BCO
3
)
levels are 400 ppm or greater.
Note
:
Titanium must be sprayed within the same day of mixing.
Mixing Instructions
Use mixing instructions “d” on page 13.
Application Tips
Weed control
:
Optimum weed control is obtained by applying herbicides when targeted weeds are actively growing.
When applied to crops under stress (drought, heat, frost, poor soil fertility, flooding or prolonged cool temperatures),
weed control may be delayed or reduced.
Crop safety
:
Tillered cereal crops may incur injury if Titanium is sprayed within 48 hours of freezing temperatures.
How it Works
Achieve is a systemic herbicide that is absorbed through the leaves and translocated to the growing points within
the plant where it starts killing the susceptible grasses. Thorough coverage of the foliage is important for consistent
grass control. Approve contains two components: bromoxynil and 2,4-D. Bromoxynil is a contact-type herbicide;
therefore, good spray coverage is essential. Inhibits photosynthesis and plant respiration. 2,4-D is a hormone-type
herbicide that causes abnormal growth, affects respiration, food reserves and cell division in broadleaf plants. It is
absorbed primarily by leaves and stems and translocated to the growing tips and roots.
