8 using a correctly calibrated, registered aircraft according to the instructions of SABS Code 10118 (Aerial Application of Agricultural Pesticides). Ensure that the spray mixture is distributed evenly over the target area and that the loss of spray material during application is restricted to a minimum. It is therefore essential that the following criteria be met: • Volume: A spray mixture volume of 30 to 50 litres per hectare is recommended. As this product has not been evaluated at a reduced volume rate, the registration holder cannot guarantee efficacy, or be held responsible for any adverse effects if this product is applied aerially at a lower volume rate than recommended. • Droplet coverage: 30 to 40 droplets per cm² must be recovered at the target area. • Droplet size: A droplet spectrum with a VMD of 300 to 400 microns is recommended. Limit the production of fine droplets less than 150 microns (high drift and evaporation potential) to a minimum. • Flying height: Maintain the height of the spray boom at 3 to 4 metres above the target. Do not spray when aircraft dives, is in a climb or when banking • Use suitable atomising equipment that will produce the desired droplet size and coverage, but which will ensure the minimum loss of product. The spraying system must produce a droplet spectrum with the lowest possible Relative Span. • Position all the atomisers within the inner 60 to 75% of the wingspan to prevent droplets from entering the wingtip vortices. • The use of a registered drift retardant and/or low drift aerial spraying nozzle (e.g. straight stream nozzle) is recommended. • The difference in temperature between the wet and dry bulb thermometers, of a whirling hygrometer, should not exceed 8°C. • Stop spraying if the wind speed exceeds 10km/h. • Stop spraying under turbulent, unstable and dry conditions during the heat of the day. • Spraying under temperature inversion conditions (spraying in or above the inversion layer) and/or high humidity conditions (relative humidity 80% and above) may lead to the following: a) reduced efficacy due to suspension and evaporation of small droplets in the air (inadequate coverage). b) damage to other sensitive crops and/or non-target areas through drifting of the suspended spray cloud away from the target field. • Ensure that the Aerial Spray Operator knows exactly which fields to spray. • Obtain an assurance from the Aerial Spray Operator that the above requirements will be met and that relevant data will be compiled in a logbook and kept for future reference. SURFACTANTS / ADDITIVES • For optimum results a minimum of 1.5% GLYPHOGAN solution in the total spray volume is recommended. If it is less 0.5% surfactant (0.5l / 100l water) should be added to the spray volume. For example: 3l in 200l water / ha (1.5% solution) = No surfactant needed. 3l in 400l water / ha (0.7% solution) = Add 2l surfactant to the spray volume. • GLYPHOFIX (L5389), a high surfactant formulation, may be added to spray solutions as a surfactant at 0.5 to 0.75l GLYPHOFIX per 100l spray volume. • GLYPHOFIX may be used to supplement GLYPHOGAN in the spray solution by replacing 1l GLYPHOGAN with 2l GLYPHOFIX. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE MORE THAN 50% OF THE RECOMMENDED GLYPHOGAN RATE e.g. GLYPHOGAN rate 4l / ha = 3l GLYPHOGAN + 2l GLYPHOFIX / ha.
9 • For pH and water hardness adjustment of spray water, add a buffer as recommended to the spray water before adding GLYPHOGAN. WEED CONTROL Percentage calculation, e.g. 1.5% solution = 1.5l GLYPHOGAN in 98.5l water = 100l spray solution.
