Application Information
Dividend XL RTA is a ready-to-use, water-based formulation for use in commercial seed treatment plants and for
on-farm treatment using standard gravity flow or mist type seed treatment equipment. Dividend XL RTA may also be
used in a treat-on-the-go air seeder. This product does not require the addition of water for application. Use the lower
rate under normal field conditions. Use the higher rate if (1) there is a history of high disease pressures in the field,
(2)
field conditions favour seed-borne and soil-borne pathogens, (3) controlling seed-borne Septoria or early season
Septoria leaf blotch.
How it Works
Dividend XL RTA is a systemic seed treatment that controls or suppresses certain seed- and soil-borne diseases of
registered crops.
