This patented formulation gives you consistent control for healthier turf and better playing surfaces all season long. Produces drier, firmer putting surfaces Allows deep and infrequent irrigation without sacrificing playability Dramatically reduces the need to hand water Strengthens plant s natural ability to withstand stress and disease pressure Rate per 100m 2 185mL in 8L 18.5L in 800L Pack Size: 20L, 210L Dispatch is a patented technology that maximizes irrigation efficiency, allowing you to save water and energy. Dispatch can easily be injected into your irrigation or tank-mixed with any spray application. Greatly increases water penetration and irrigation efficiency Significantly reduces run-off on sloped areas: low areas aren t wet, high areas aren t dry Increases nitrogen fertilizer efficiency Moves fertilizer and chemicals into the soil more uniformly for maximum benefit Save 20-50% in water and energy use Better turf performance and playability Rate per 100m 2 Injection: 18-36mL monthly Boom: 24mL in 4L Tank Mixing: 190mL per 100L Injection: L/ha monthly Boom: 2.4L in 400L Pack Size: 10L, 208L Aqueduct is designed to provide rapid recovery from existing water management problems such as localized dry spots.
