Save up to 60,000 litres of water per hectare.Greater availability in dry conditions.Season long control of grubs.Irrigation savings “washing in” after applicationMeridian^® can help to save up to 60,000 litres of water per hectare during post grub-insecticide application “wash in”. The superior solubility of the active ingredient – thiamethoxam (neonicotinoid) – is the main reason for this ben efit. Thiamethoxam is approximately 8 times more soluble than imidacloprid (Fig. 1), thus increasing robustness and water savings during incorporation.  Effective in wet and dry soil conditionsNeonicotinoids age in soil, with the majority of the active ingredient available during the first 30 days dissolved in soil moisture. Increased solubility of thiamethoxam during this time will ensure elevated levels of availability and thus effi cacy in drier soil conditions. In the longer term (20-100 days), thiamethoxam will bind to soil, to be released more readily back (desorbed) into solution than imidacloprid. This…

 Introduction to Qualibra: Deeper ThinkingQualibra is an exciting new concept in wetting agent technology. With Qualibra, water quickly moves away from the surface, and then is held more evenly and to greater depth within the root zone for better utilisation by turf plants. Qualibra is an exciting new development in wetting agent technology:Quick water movement away from the soil surfaceBetter moisture retention deep and evenly in the root zonePotential for more efficient irrigationFurther trials have shown that Qualibra treated soils retain moisture more effectively in the root zone and can make better use ofirrigation resources.  After 10 mm irrigation on a hydrophobic dry soil core of a typical sand used in green construction, soil moisture content was 50% higher with Qualibra, compared to the average with existing wetting agents tested. Qualibra returned the soil to optimum 15 – 20% moisture content after 19 mm of irrigation – over 25% better performance than other wetting agents…

 Ryder is the new turf pigment technology that protects turf from harmful UV rays and excessive light, delivering a consistent natural green colour.  Apply as a programme to build colour and prior to periods of stress to maintain appearance.Great lasting colour – that can be tailored to your turf demands.Protection from harmful UV radiation and high light intensities.Rainfast in 1 hour.Light stressTurf is highly vulnerable to light stress and hence photoinhibition.  This is when light intensity is way beyond the plants ability to regulate its energy with its normal photosynthetic pathways.  On a bright sunny day, light intensity can be 4x greater than the plant saturation point (the point where additional light ceases to increase the photosynthetic rate any further). The susceptibility of turf to light stress is severely intensified when under stress. This can be heat stress, drought stress or cold stress.Dye differenceRYDER is a high-concentration turf-specific…
