AGRAL 90
ACTIVE INGREDIENT:
Nonylphenoxy polyethoxy ethanol …………………………… 92%
Agral 90 is a non-ionic surfactant made up of 90%
Nonylyphenoxy Polyethyoxy Ethanol. Non-ionic means that there
are no positive or negative ions to compete or react with the active chemistry of the product being tank mixed
Agral 90 reduces the surface tension of the water droplets causing
them to flatten or spread on the leaf surface. This allows more surface area for the chemical to come in contact with the leaf.
Agral 90 also helps break down the waxy cuticle of the leaf allowing more chemical uptake.
ALSO: Use AGRAL 90 for cleaning sprayers
ALL CLEAR TANK CLEANER
Active Ingredient: 35.5 - Dodecyl Benzene Sodium Sulfonate

AMS Utility Modifier
Crops : Barley Wheat
Weeds controlled: Cleavers
Bayer is supplying its own proprietary liquid spray grade Ammonium Sulphate (AMS) to the western Canadian crop protection market. This product is being sold as a utility modifier for use with Infinity and Tundra herbicides.
Ammonium Sulphate utility modifier has a concentration of 400 g/L (40% solution). It should be added to Infinity or Tundra for control of cleavers greater than three whorls in size. The Infinity and Tundra labels state “For control of cleavers at the four to six whorl stage, add ammonium sulphate at 500 g/ha”. Thus, the application rate of Ammonium Sulphate utility modifier for use with Infinity or Tundra
herbicides is 1.25 L/ha (500 g/ha ÷ 400 g/L) or 0.5 L/ac.
