Avoid boom overlaps and ensure that the boom height is correctly adjusted.

Occasionally low levels of temporary leaf tipping may occur following application; this tipping only affects the leaves present at application and will not affect the final yield.

Do not apply Medax Top to any crop suffering physical stress caused by waterlogging, drought or other conditions. Crops with a substantial moisture deficit should not be treated.

Avoid spray drift on to neighbouring crops.

Medax Top is a plant growth regulator for reduction of crop height, which can lead to lodging control and yield protection in all varieties of winter wheat, winter barley and winter triticale.

Lodging reduction and yield response in winter triticale are less consistent than in winter wheat and winter barley.
