How it Works
CelluDot’s solution to herbicide drift is a plant-based formulation that encapsulates the herbicide, reducing off-target movements and vaporization, while increasing its adherence to plants.
A CERTIFIED TANK-MIX PARTNER WITH NO EPA APPROVAL NEEDED
Easy to use tank mix
BioGrip™ gets rid of stubborn weeds
By combining the functionality of various ingredients (drift reducing agent – DRA, vapor reducing agent – VRA, and rainfastness agent – RFA) in a single formulation, CelluDot’s convenient one-step solution reduces farmers’ risk of errors during preparation of their tank mix with herbicide and other adjuvants, while improving end-year margins, and mitigating herbicide drift with their devastating negative effects on human health, including native ecosystems and endangered species.
DRA
- Coarse droplets (i.e., VMD between 600-900 micron) as per wind tunnel tests.
- Spray droplets have a good foliar deposition and low drift potential as per ASABE S572.1 size classification.
VRA
- Reduced dicamba volatility by at least 50%, as per EPA-based humidome tests.
- Retained herbicidal efficacy (i.e., > 95%) against recalcitrant weeds at low adjuvant use rates (i.e., 0.25% – 0.75% v/v).
ADDITIONAL BENEFITS
- Functionality of a surfactant (RFA) for efficient leaf coverage.
- Biodegradable and non-toxic to freshwater organisms (OECD 302B and OECD 201 tests).
- No mixing compatibility issues with herbicides and fungicides.
