WETCIT has been shown to quicken the translocation of systemic herbicide throughout weeds.

A recent Oro Agri-commissioned study conducted by the University of Illinois has shown a simple tank mix of WETCIT with TransPhloem technology offers producers improved translocation of herbicides to kill weeds faster and improve field conditions for all commercial crops such as wheat, cotton, corn, and soybeans.

WETCIT provides superior results compared to other adjuvant types and various crop oils, resulting in faster weed kill off to improve the potential for higher yields.

Benefits of WETCIT plus herbicides include:

• Delivery of more post-emergent, systemic herbicide to weed roots FASTER than other types of adjuvants
• Superior spreading, wetting and penetrating properties
• Enhanced rainfastness due to superior cuticle penetration
• Improved movement through epicuticular wax

 

Lambsquarters treated with Roundup PowerMAX

WETCIT with TransPhloem technology quickens the translocation of systemic herbicides throughout the plant leading to a faster kill off. In the pictures above, an application of WETCIT with glyphosate resulted in a quicker kill of the lambsquarter weed
