Kenso Agcare MCPA 250 Selective Herbicide - General Instructions

Product Overview:

• Kenso Agcare MCPA 250 is a selective herbicide acting by penetrating the cuticle of plants, causing disruption of plant cell growth.
• It provides visible results within a few days for susceptible weeds but may take several weeks for harder-to-control weeds.
• MCPA may be washed off leaves if rain follows within six hours of application.

Resistant Weeds Warning:

• MCPA 250 is a Group I Herbicide, part of the phenoxys group.
• Weeds may develop resistance if herbicides are used repeatedly; resistant weeds won't be controlled by MCPA 250.
• Kenso Corporation accepts no liability for losses resulting from the failure of MCPA 250 to control resistant weeds.

Timing and Application:

• Apply when weeds are actively growing under favorable conditions.
• Annuals should be sprayed when young, and perennials just prior to flowering.
• Extreme cold or drought may reduce efficacy, and spraying is best done in moist soil with fine weather and no rain expected within 6 hours.

Legume Tolerance:

• MCPA is preferred in situations where legumes are undersown in the crop.
• Tolerance varies among legumes: Lucerne (not tolerant), Medics (low tolerance), Sub-Clover (moderate tolerance), White Clover (moderate tolerance), Strawberry Clover (high tolerance).

Application and Mixing:

• MCPA 250 mixes readily with water.
• For boom spraying, use 120-240 liters of water per hectare, and for aerial spraying, use 40-60 liters per hectare.
