About the Adjuvants, conditioners and wetting agents category

This category includes products mainly intended for professional users in agriculture, fruit growing and tree and shrub nurseries. Wetting adjuvants improve the coverage of surfaces with spray liquid, oil and soil adjuvants support the action of plant protection products in the soil or on leaves. Water conditioners are used to lower the pH and soften the water used for preparing sprays.

The sprayer cleaning and anti-foaming agents subcategory includes preparations for removing residues of plant protection products from sprayers and preventing foaming of the liquid. Active substances used in this group include polyvinyl alcohol, mineral oil, di-1-P-menthene and mepiquat chloride. Example products are Acidemax and Activ 5 Plus Agrigent.

Use plant protection products safely. Always read the label and product information before use.
