How to Deal with Hard Water when Spraying
Water is one of the cheapest inputs into a crop and can be one of our biggest assets. The quality of the water utilized is
Water Conditioning = Delivers the Genetic Potential
Whether it’s a pre-seed burndown, in-crop or pre-harvest, attention should be paid to spray water quality because hard water (cations) can bind to pesticides – decreasing efficacy. By softening the spray water in the tank, ModipHy helps ensure that growers get the most out of each pass over the field.
- Adding ModipHy to your tank mix can maximize chemistry efficacy by balancing your pH and softening hard water.
- ModipHy neutralizes the free ions present in hard water, preventing pesticides from reacting with hard water cations like magnesium, iron and calcium.
- ModipHy’s surfactant package ensures that more herbicide gets into the leaf reducing the effect of these plant-borne cations.
- At harvest, ModipHy helps glyphosate penetrate dusty or dirt-covered weeds.
Proven Agronomic Performance
- When ModipHy and Glyphosate are combined, tough to kill weeds like Lambsquarters and Redwoot Pigweed are more effectively controlled, maintaining the yield potential of the crop.
- Increased weed control occurs due to ModipHy neutralizing the free ions present in hard water. It prevents your pesticides from reacting with hard water cations like magnesium, iron and calcium. ModipHy’s surfactants ensure that more herbicide gets into the leaf, reducing the effect of these plant-borne cations.
- When water quality is not an issue, ModipHy still enhances herbicide efficacy by increasing the solubility of the herbicide, and lowering the spray tank pH thereby improving herbicide uptake by the plant.
- ATP has created a calculator to determine your water hardness called Total Inactivation Potential (refer to well water example in table below). Please visit www.atpag.com to input your Spray Water Analysis information to retrieve your Water Hardness report.
