General Info
ADAMA's specifically designed herbicide programme, builds on a robust pre-emergence spray incorporating Goltix Gold and Ethosat followed by post emergent applications of Rifle EC, Goltix Gold and Ethosat to control any subsequent weeds. This not only gives you highly effective weed control, but also more time in case of adverse weather effects and/or other unforeseen events.
New additions are also MAVRIK® AQUAFLO Insecticide for powerful, yet soft Nysius and cutworm control and foliar fungicide CUSTODIA® with only 28 days withholding period.
All products have been rigorously tested and refined to complement New Zealand growing conditions and are backed by robust trial results.
