DIRECTIONS FOR USE
CROPS
BOXER* can be used on all varieties of winter and spring wheat, barley, oats, rye and triticale (but not Durum wheat) between the growth stages given below.
BOXER may also be applied to these cereal crops undersown with ryegrass species.
Note: Do not apply to crops containing or undersown with clover or other legume containing mixtures.
To help prevent the build-up of resistance, do not apply BOXER to the same site for more than three consecutive years.
The maximum total dose of BOXER to any cereal crop should not exceed 0.15 litre/ha.

SOIL
BOXER is mainly absorbed by the leaves of the weeds and as such can be used on all soil types.

APPLICATION
BOXER may be applied through tractor-mounted hydraulic sprayers providing they are in good working order and have been calibrated according to the manufacturers’ recommendations.

Do not apply through CDA applicators.

WATER VOLUME
Apply BOXER in 150 to 250 litres of water per hectare. The lower volume must only be used in open crops on small weeds.

MIXING
Half fill the spray tank with water and add the required amount of BOXER. Fill up the spray tank, agitating continuously to ensure thorough mixing, and maintain agitation until spraying is complete. Use only clean water for mixing.

SPRAY QUALITY
Apply BOXER as a MEDIUM spray as defined by the BCPC system.

SPRING APPLICATION
TIMING
BOXER should be applied from 1st February, once the crop has reached 3 leaves (Zadoks13) up to Zadoks 49 inclusive.

RATES OF USE
One application of up to 0.15 litre/ha will control all susceptible emerged weeds. Two split applications may be applied up to a maximum rate of 0.15 litre/ha where weed germination takes place over an extended period.

MAXIMUM WEED SIZE CONTROLLED
BOXER is most effective when applied to small, actively growing weeds. Larger weeds may be less susceptible. For optimum performance it is important to check the size of weeds before application.

AUTUMN APPLICATION
TIMING
BOXER should be applied once the crop has reached 3 leaves (Zadoks 13) up to Zadoks 49 inclusive.

RATES OF USE
One application of up to 0.075 litre/ha will control all susceptible emerged weeds. Two split applications may be applied up to a maximum total dose of 0.075 litre/ha where weed germination takes place over an extended period.
