Improving actives penetration is a key objective for the agricultural industry. In Asia particularly, boosting the performance of glufosinate ammonium, a widely used herbicide in the region, is a significant challenge. The Stepan Agricultural Solutions’ Asia team met this head on and developed STEPGROW GL 104 XTRA, a proprietary surfactant blend designed for glufosinate ammonium soluble liquid (SL) formulations. Glufosinate ammonium is a non-systemic herbicide with high activity, low toxicity and a good environmental compatibility profile. Improving the absorption rate is critical to glufosinate ammonium herbicide performance and the easiest to control. This can be done by using a synergistic adjuvant like STEPGROW GL 104 XTRA.
AgroPages Magazine recently featured STEPGROW GL 104 XTRA and highlighting its excellent wetting and penetration properties that boost field performance against troublesome weeds. Read the article to learn how STEPGROW GL 104 XTRA can improve product performance beyond current industry standards, providing:
- Superior field efficacy compared to market benchmarks in Asia
- Demonstrated strong effectiveness against goosegrass and barnyardgrass
- Enhanced penetration of active ingredient
- Better inhibition of weed re-growth
