Avadex. Liquid or granular

[snipe]

Which is best. The granular looks to put a lot less active on.
Granular 15kg/ha @ 15% = 225
Liquid. 3 l/ha @ 480% = 1440

Looks a massive difference, am I missing something?

Liquid is crap, but convenient.

Do the arithmetic again.

Avadex Factor liquid is 2/3 the strength of Avadex Excel assuming full doses of each.

It's not 480%, it's 480 gr/l. Which does give 1440gr/ha. Or 48%.

And 15% of 15000gr/ha is 2250gr/ha.
Granules every day, if you can apply them.

Granular. If you're going to do it, do it properly.

You missing a zero,....2250

If your a direct driller or min til you’ll be happy with granular. Liquid gets lost in the trash.

Getting % and grams/litre in a muddle. Thanks

We have a small seed applicator from bullock tillage, fan, metering rollers and 8 outlets over 7 meters, would this be ok to apply it??

Just check the outlets can spread evenly between each other and you will be fine.

The stocks applicator has specific metering rollers for avadex as it flows very easily and can run straight through standard rollers

I’m mounting an Avadex applicator to our rollers. I can get most of the outlets behind the rollers. But where the rollers wheels are it would be easier to mount the outlets in front of the roller. Would this be ok or must it be after the roller?

Be ok

it will be absolutely OK

just check operating height to achieve complete coverage!

As above, the liquid is 2/3 the amount of triallate at full rate. Its not 2/3 price and less than 2/3 as good, depending on the conditions after applying. Better than nothing and is a different mode of action to most other graminicides to help manage resistance.

Avadex is a fumigant, so will work in drier cloddy seedbeds better than liquid herbicides.
