Description

Tussock Herbicide is a member of the alkanoic acids group of herbicides. Tussock Herbicide has the inhibitor of fat synthesis mode of action. For weed resistance management Tussock Herbicide is a Group J Herbicide.

Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to Tussock Herbicide and other inhibitors of fat synthesis mode of action herbicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any weed population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly. These resistant weeds will not be controlled by Tussock Herbicide or any other inhibitors of fat synthesis mode of action herbicides.

Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Grow Choice Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Tussock Herbicide to control resistant weeds.

Important

• This product is very slow acting and control of existing growth will take 3-12 months depending on weather conditions and senescence of plant foliage.
• The actual length of satisfactory residual control will depend on soil type and rainfall until regeneration occurs from grass seed or surviving rhizomes.
• Tussock Herbicide is liable to leaching and movement in the soil under heavy rainfall or irrigation, and dry conditions favour its persistence in the soil.
• Avoid use in channels and drains and where roots of desirable plants may extend; and in other situations where desirable plants grow close to the treated area.
• Control of grasses growing in shaded conditions may be reduced.
• Subterranean clover and other annual legumes may be damaged by this product if exposed to the spray or if they germinate before product residues have dissipated form the soil. Do not treat pasture land with this product more than once per year.
