INDUSTRIAL SITUATIONS.

Nufarm weedmaster® DUO®
is fully loaded with an
aquatically approved
surfactant for use with high
water rates in horticulture
and industrial situations.

Unlike other 360 gm glyphosate formulations, Nufarm
weedmaster DUO contains two salts to improve plant uptake.
The result is, better weed control that also gives you extra
flexibility thanks to its enhanced tank mix compatibility.

Nufarm weedmaster DUO has the added advantage of full
aquatic registration, so it can be used in sensitive areas.

NUFARM weedmaster DUO
– THE PRODUCT
Nufarm weedmaster DUO contains 360 g/L of glyphosate,
present as the isopropylamine and mono-ammonium salts.
The important difference between Nufarm weedmaster
DUO and other 360 g/L glyphosates is that it uses those two
bases to form soluble glyphosate salts – the unique Dual Salt
Technology process developed by Nufarm. The inclusion
of mono-ammonium salt along with a unique surfactant
package accelerates the progress of glyphosate through
the cuticle into the plant sap transport system.

REGISTRATIONS
Nufarm weedmaster DUO is registered for the control of
annual and perennial weeds, brush and woody weeds,
aquatic weeds, unwanted trees in forestry and a wide
range of crops.

Specific rates are registered for application by
boomsprays, handguns and knapsacks. For brush and
woody weeds, there are specified low-volume application
rates and aerial rates for application in tank mixes with
Nufarm's Associate®. Wiper and controlled droplet
application equipment can also be used in specific
situations. Check the product label for full details.
