An hourly rate is used due to the different factors effecting the time it takes to spray an acre.


The rates listed below include a surfactant that is used along with all herbicidies except Plateau and Glystar.This improves the uptake of the herbicide by the weeds. This particular surfactant has a small amount of nitrogen in it that encourages the weed to grow thus taking the herbicide to the root.
This does not have to be used if you are looking for a less expensive way to spray your weeds. At about 2.25 per acre, I feel it is worth using.

In order to get a more uniform application of the chemicals, A blue dye is added to the mixture. This helps avoid missing spots or going over areas twice. After the application the dye will fade in the sunlight and with moisture.
