Ideal application timing can be difficult toachieve during changeable spring weather, but withone hour rainfastness weather conditions are less likelyto impact application.Rapid absorption and translocationOnce applied, Crest 520 is rapidly absorbed by thefoliage and the roots and is translocated to the growingpoints of the weed. Crest 520 starts by attackingthese growing points to stop any new growth. AlthoughCrest 520 starts working on grass weeds immediately,visible colour changes in the weeds will be evident in afew weeks with total brownout taking several weeks.Key Benefits• Five times stronger thanstandard formulations• Rainfast in just one hour• Safe on broadleaf crops• Rapid absorption andtranslocationNufarm NZwww.nufarm.co.nz6 Manu Street, OtahuhuPO Box 22-407, Auckland 1640, New ZealandPhone 09 270 4157, Fax 09 270 4159 Crest, Prestige and Nu-Trazine are trademarks of Nufarm Ltd.
