NUVOGON 480 EC is a systemic emulsifiable concentrate herbicide registered for the control of woody plants and weeds in forestry, grass pastures, and industrial areas.
How It Works
The active ingredient Triclopyr is an auxin mimic (synthetic auxin) that kills target weeds by mimicking the plant growth hormone auxin (indole acetic acid). At effective doses, it causes uncontrolled and disorganised plant growth leading to plant death.
- Degradation occurs primarily through microbial metabolism; photolysis and hydrolysis also play a role
- Average half-life of Triclopyr acid in soils: 30 days
- Offsite movement through surface or subsurface runoff is possible due to moderate soil adsorption
Why Choose NUVOGON 480 EC?
- Particularly effective on woody species via cut-stump or basal bark treatments
- Highly effective against root or stem-sprouting species — remains persistent in plants until they die
- Versatile application: can be mixed in water or diesel
- Foliar applications target actively growing plants; cut stump and basal applications with petroleum-based solvent can be applied year-round (providing sufficient soil moisture)
