CASPER Herbicide for Post-emergence Control
What sets CASPER apart from other herbicides are the dual active ingredients: dicamba and prosulfuron, the only registered product for turf in Australia with this combination. This combination of the active ingredients will provide a complete and thorough kill of broadleaf weeds with. The fast-acting dicamba in CASPER Turf Herbicide easily observed within a couple of days post-application on targeted weeds.
Application Guidelines for CASPER Herbicide
CASPER is a WDG, or water dispersible granule formulation, and has flexible rates between 600 g/ha and 1.2 kg/ha, depending on the weed being targeted. Please refer to the product label for more information. It provides comprehensive control of many broadleaf weeds including Old World Diamond Flower, Spurge, Buttonweed, and difficult to control weeds such as Khaki Weed, Fleabane, and Wireweed.
CASPER Herbicide provides excellent control of hard to kill weeds such as Khaki Weed, White Clover and Bindii.
Water rates for CASPER are between 400 L/ha to 800 L/ha. The higher the cut of turf, the higher the water volume should be to get good coverage on the targeted weed. If you have a lower height of cut and therefore a lower water rate, it is better to use a nozzle such as XC 04; with higher cuts and higher water rates it is recommended to use a nozzle such as XC 08. It is important when mixing CASPER to ensure application of a non-ionic surfactant such as AGRAL at a volume percentage of between 0.25% and 0.5%.
CASPER is supplied with a convenient measuring container which makes the process of measuring easier. The WDG formulation also makes it easy to transport and measure for large area spraying compared to transporting heavy drums of liquid formulations.
