if you are in the north the dosage is 50 ml per 16 liter sprayer but if you are in the south it should be 70 ml it's not advisable to mix with other chemicals

JeAgro477:
Listen to me very careful especially those of you that has interest in farming
Understand what is crop spectrum and weed spectrum

Understanding crop spectrum will enable farmer comprehend the type of post emergence herbicide to apply to certain crops.

Similarly understanding weed spectrum enable farmers to know the types of weeds in their farms and ultimately the right herbicide to apply.

Oga farmer thanks for your information. BUT
I hope that you and other farmers in Nigeria understand that there is a STRONG LINK between herbicides and cancer.
Herbicides are CARCINOGENIC.
Cancer rate is galloping in Nigeria these days, and it wasn't like this a few years back when farmers used ORGANIC methods.
Instead of herbicides, why not use human labor?
This way, you employ someone and also save our society from cancer.
Thanks in advance for heeding my advice!
