Neighbouring Crops/Plants
Avoid damage by drift onto susceptible crops, non-target plants or waterways. Do not apply directly to, or allow spray drift to come into contact with agricultural or horticultural crops, amenity plantings, gardens, ponds, lakes or watercourses.

SOIL TYPES
ASTROKERB can be used on all soil types except those containing more than 10% organic matter.

RESISTANCE
Strains of some annual grasses (e.g. blackgrass, wild oats, Italian ryegrass) have developed resistance to herbicides which may lead to poor control. A strategy for preventing and managing such resistance should be adopted. Guidelines have been produced by the Weed Resistance Action Group and copies are available from the HGCA, CPA, your distributor, crop adviser or product manufacturer.

WINTER OILSEED RAPE
ASTROKERB can be applied after the use of an approved specific graminicide applied in accordance with the manufacturers’ recommendations.

Apply ASTROKERB in 200 to 300 litres of water per hectare. Ensure good ground cover.
