SALVO 212 Herbicide 20L

SALVO 212 Herbicide is a 20 L pack of a 212 g/L fluazifop-P grass herbicide (Group 1, APVMA 67039). The label lists annual and perennial grasses in named crops such as legumes, canola, soybeans, vegetables, potatoes, fruit and tree crops, and in potted and open grown ornamental shrubs and trees in nurseries, parks and gardens. Lawn or turf is not listed as a use.

What it does not control. The label says it does not control winter grass (Poa annua), silver grass, nutsedge, blady grass or broadleaf weeds. Do not treat weeds that are not actively growing, under stress, in high temperature and low humidity, or at the flowering stage, and do not let annual grasses reach late tillering before spraying.

Where not to use it. Do not apply over the top of Protea, Mesembryanthemum, Browallia or Verbena; apply only as a directed spray. Do not apply under weather conditions or with equipment that may cause drift onto nearby susceptible plants, crops or pastures. Do not tank mix with other pesticides without checking with the supplier.

Harvest and grazing. Withholding periods run from none (stone fruit, pome fruit, citrus) to 17 weeks (lupins, canola, soybeans), and grazing periods from 21 days to 14 weeks. Check the label for your crop.

How to use it. Rates depend on the weed and growth stage, for example in ornamentals 750 mL or 1 L per hectare for seedlings and 2 or 4 L for established plants, or 12.5 to 25 mL per 10 L for spot spraying seedlings. The label says it is rainfast within one hour. Read the full label before mixing.

Before you buy. The label says it is toxic to aquatic life, so avoid release to the environment and collect spillage. It asks for elbow-length PVC gloves and a face shield. If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or the Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26.
