How to properly prepare a working product

To prepare the working solution, it is necessary to perform a number of sequential operations:

1. In a special ceramic or enamel dish, a mother liquor is made by measuring the required amount of the drug.
2. Water is poured into the sprayer tank through a filter so that no foreign particles get there.
3. The mother liquor is poured in with constant stirring of the liquid.
4. Add water to full volume.
5. The solution is stirred for 5-7 minutes.
6. The container where the mother liquor was prepared is washed several times with clean water and poured into the sprayer tank.

The solution is prepared on the day of work and used in its entirety. At the end, the sprayer is washed with clean water for 10 minutes and emptied by irrigating the treated area.

Weeding of pine and spruce plantings (at the age of coniferous trees at least 5 years) is carried out from spring to late autumn with a drug consumption of 0.15-0.2 kilograms per hectare of plantings.

The working substance is consumed in the amount of 100-300 liters per 1 hectare (depending on the type and size of weeds, soil and climatic conditions). The most effective chemical agent at a height of weeds up to 20 cm. The herbicide "Ankor 85" is resistant to precipitation.
