Type of adjuvant Deposition aid/drift control agent
Chemical composition Polyvinyl polymer (polyacrylamide)
Guaranteed Active 30%
Ontario Schedule n/a
Winter Storage A
Registered Uses For use with most water soluble and wettable powder pesticides and desiccants, including glyphosate, when applied by aerial application or standard ground equipment.
Benefit Deposition improvement and drift retardation in spraying operations, to potentially reduce injury to adjacent crops or plants.
Mode of Action When tank-mixed with a pesticide, On Target reduces drift by materially reducing fines resulting from shear.
Mixing Fill mix tank with water, pesticide and other additives and begin to agitate. Select correct dosage. Shake bottle well before using. Either inject On Target liquid into the suction side of the feeder or recirculating pump or slowly add On Target liquid to the rapidly agitating tank-mix in the area of highest turbulence by pouring in a very thin stream. This obtains the best dispersion of the polymer throughout the pesticide solution. Allow mixing to continue for at least 2 minutes before spraying.
Manufacturer / Registrant Norac Concepts Inc.
