Urab is an effective chemical for control of brush on
utility, highway, and railroad right-of-ways, particularly
where regrowth of grass cover is desired. Both soil and
foliar applications are effective and the results obtained
vary with the, dosage used, species of brush, soil type, weather
conditions and type of application.
Urab has been successfully applied with hydraulic sprayers,
mist blowers, knapsack sprayers, fertilizer spreaders and
seeders, and by helicopters and fixed wing aircraft.
