| - | Winter Rainfall Region Commence spraying in late winter or early spring, taking the recommendations for specific weeds into consideration. Follow–up sprays may be needed on perennial weeds or problem broadleaf weeds 4 to 6 weeks after the initial spray unless otherwise indicated. Commence spraying before bud burst in bush and low trellised vines. In the case of high trellises, do not spray overhanging foliage or green portions of the vines. Do not spray vines which are two years and less in age unless stems are shielded. Summer Rainfall Region Commence spraying during late spring when soil moisture is sufficient, and weeds are actively growing. Repeat spray 7 – 8 weeks later if necessary. | - |

Ensure that the sugarcane foliage is not exposed to any spray drift as the cane will be damaged. | - |

Why Basta®?
A non-selective, partly systemic (trans-laminar) and contact herbicide for the control of certain broadleaf weeds and grasses.
- Excellent crop safety in comparison to nonselective systemic herbicides currently on the market
- Contact herbicide that is effective on difficult to control broadleaf weeds and grasses
- Ideal to be used in cases where herbicide resistance against other herbicide groups such as glyphosate (HRAC group G) and/ or paraquat (HRAC group D) have been confirmed
- Fits well in a herbicide resistance management program-HRAC group H
- Very low volatility to limit spray drift
- No pH sensitivity
