The Problem with Hard Water?
Reduced Herbicide Efficacy.
Hard water contains minerals like calcium and magnesium, which can bind with herbicides, reducing their effectiveness. This means your herbicides may not work as well as they should, leading to less effective weed control.
I’m very comfortable selling OUTRIGHT 770 as it works well and is compatible with all my offered herbicides. It offers my farmers convenience in the shed and out in the field. OUTRIGHT 770 has been a good fit into our spray programs and the uptake locally has been excellent.

So, What’s inside the drum
OUTRIGHT 770 spray adjuvant is a unique three-way mix of surfactants, penetrating oil and ammonium sulphate specifically designed for use in Australia. Each of the three components performs different functions, combining to create an ideal adjuvant for use in many situations.
Ethyl and Methyl Ester:
Ethyl and Methyl Esters of canola oil act as a penetrating oil, facilitating the penetration of active ingredients through the waxy surface of weeds. It also reduces surface evaporation, maximizing the time available for foliar uptake.
Non-Ionic Surfactants:
Non-ionic surfactants help spray droplets adhere to the target and spread effectively, improving herbicide uptake and overall performance.
Ammonium Sulphate:
This crucial component aids in overcoming the challenges posed by hard water. It helps prevent the adverse effects hard water can have on certain herbicides, making them more effective in challenging conditions.
