As I understand it, the product comes as a twin pack - was easier for BAYER to get registration that way. So different distributors have their own version of the twin pack. The flufanact/DFF component will be Liberator or Regatta, haven't heard of any other brand but may be. The Aclinofen component is as Proclus or Bandur - maybe some other names I am not aware of. Rate is same regardless. 0.6 + 1.4. So not complicated just have to ask for confirmation of the product names, rates and per hectare price at full rate for comparison.
I am wary of the stuff as last year a farm I go to we used Regatta + Proclus and it sludged up the sprayer - but because operator didn't clean sprayer in the evening when ending his day - as he didn't for the Crystal DFF he had been on. Bayer have now got quite prescriptive sprayer cleaning recommendations with the product.
Just been told that the co-pack is 5l Liberator, 10l Proclus.
Someone didn't think that through when trying to get 0.6l/ha and 1.4l/ha.
0.5 and 1.2 is easy, just not 1.4.
