| Crop
and/or Non-Crop Registrations |
Non-crop land for total vegetation control and
as a spot treatment to control brush. |
|
Sensitive Weeds |
Annual and perennial broadleaf weeds and grasses
(broadcast application). Several brush species (spot application).
|
|
Uptake and Translocation |
Most readily absorbed through the roots. Surfactants
can enhance foliar activity. Translocation is upward with the
movement of water to leaves where it inhibits photosynthesis. |
| Basis
of Selectivity |
Non-selective at normal rates. |
|
Application Methods |
For herbaceous weeds, broadcast sprayed, preferably
just before or during periods of active weed growth. For brush,
spot applications with an exact-delivery handgun sprayer either
at the base of target brush or on a grid. |
|
Residual Activity |
Half-life was 5-6 months for 4.4 kg/ha bromacil
in a silty loam soil. |
| Unique
Characteristics |
Do not use Bromacil where it is likely to leach,
wash or move with eroded soil into contact with the roots of desirable
trees and shrubs. Do not apply to brush standing in water. |
