Abstract/Contents:"A premix combination product of glyphosate (Touchdown®)x diquat was evaluated in 2002 at Syngenta research stations and on University campuses. Both a concentrate and RTU (ready to use) product were evaluated for homeowner use at rates of 710 gae/ha. Test conditions varied across the US and weeds evaluated were of regional interest. Improved speed of activity was observed from the pre-mixes compared to straight glyphosate on FESRU (Festuca rubra) in RI, grass control in MD, foxtail ( ertaria species) in NY, dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) across several sites. The RTU premix formulation, when weeds across sites were evaluated, improved speed of activity between 2-5-DAT compared to glyphosate alone. One location tested Monsanto's QuikPro™ in comparison to the Touchdown® pre-mix; the Syngenta pre-mix provided speed of control greater than QuikPro™ against many target species. The Syngenta RTU premix was also as efficacious as the comparable tankmix of RoundupRG + diquat mixture. Timecourse of weed control will be shown and discussed. For homeowners desiring rapid results the addition of diquat to glyphosate will fill a need."
