Local authorities and other amenity professionals are increasingly looking for alternatives to traditional chemical spraying.
Whilst these can reduce pesticide usage, they are often costly, less effective, and can raise other concerns around safety and environmental impact.
The Nomix Total Droplet Control system offers a range of benefits when compared to both conventional application of glyphosate and some of the alternative approaches being offered.
These include:
The residual herbicide, Nomix Dual, is unique in being the only residual herbicide approved in the UK for application on hard surfaces, including kerb edges, highways, streets and pavements. This is a recognition of its superb environmental profile and the extremely low volume of residual active ingredient (<20 grams/hectare) required to deliver long-lasting control.
By using Nomix Dual, customers can meet the challenge of reducing glyphosate application whilst controlling costs and also maintaining a clean environment.
One application of Nomix Dual per year will control weeds present at the point of application and control regrowth for several months afterwards. This reduces the need for further applications of glyphosate, reducing overall volumes applied when viewed across the growing season.
A single application also reduces operational inputs. As a result, the costs associated with weed control can actually be reduced whilst delivering a reduction in herbicide usage.
By using Nomix Dual, the requirement for further application of glyphosate is dramatically reduced.
