Product Description
FLUPROPANATE is a water-soluble herbicide containing 745 g/L flupropanate (as the sodium salt) (Poison), in a 1L pack. The label lists control of certain grasses: serrated tussock in pastures and non-crop situations, Parramatta grass, giant rats tail and other rats tail grasses, African lovegrass and needle grasses, and (in some states only) paspalum, kikuyu, couch and African feathergrass for industrial use, with rates from 1.5 L to 22 L per hectare depending on the weed and the state. It is also listed for giant Parramatta grass in tea tree. Check the directions for your state on the label.
It stays in the soil. The label says it is liable to leaching and movement in the soil under heavy rainfall or irrigation, and that dry conditions favour its persistence. Subterranean clover and other annual legumes may be damaged if exposed to the spray or if they germinate before residues have dissipated. Desirable pasture species such as phalaris, cocksfoot, ryegrass, clovers and lucerne may be sown only after at least 100 mm of leaching rain has fallen. Do not spray near desirable trees. Avoid use in channels and drains and where the roots of desirable plants may extend, and in other situations where desirable plants grow close to the treated area.
Restraints and safety. Do not apply to steeply sloping sites at the high rates used for perennial grasses, do not allow spray drift onto susceptible crops and ornamentals, and do not apply unless the wind speed is between 3 and 20 km/h or during hazardous surface temperature inversions. Do not allow bystanders to contact the spray cloud. When preparing the spray wear elbow-length PVC gloves and a face shield or goggles. Do not allow entry into treated areas until the spray has dried. Do not contaminate streams, rivers or watercourses with the chemical or used containers.
