USES
Agro-Essence Boxmate A Herbicide is a short residual, pre-emergent herbicide for the control of many important annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in the crops nominated.
The product does not control the important broadleaf weeds in maize, sweet corn and Concep II treated sorghum, but when mixed with atrazine (500 g/L) control of many important annual weeds and grasses is obtained without the problem of carryover of herbicides affecting succeeding crops. The product acts mainly through shoot (coleoptile) absorption. Its effectiveness depends on the occurrence of rainfall or irrigation to move it down into the top 3 to 4 cm of soil, where it must be present at the time of weed germination.

APPLICATION
Ground Application only: Apply in a minimum of 60 L/ha of water.
DO NOT apply by aircraft.

MIXING
Add the required amount directly to the spray tank, fill with water and mix well.

COMPATIBILITY
Agro-Essence Boxmate A Herbicide is compatible with atrazine (500 g/L), glyphosate 360 and 450 herbicides and paraquat + diquat.
Warning - Cotton: Heavy rain following an application of Agro-Essence Boxmate A
Herbicide, together with below average soil temperatures, can result in crop injury, due to the inability of the germinating plant being able to metabolise the herbicide. Agro-Essence
Boxmate A Herbicide should not be used in situations where these conditions are likely to occur.
Warning - Brassica Crops: Crop retardation may occur where Agro-Essence Boxmate A
Herbicide is used on soils that have a low organic matter content and which contain more than 60% of fine sand and silt. On these soil types, use rates of Agro-Essence Boxmate A
Herbicide towards the lower end of the rate range and apply onto moist soil. Irrigation after application should be limited to no more than 25 mm. DO NOT use more than once per year.
