General Information
  • AGRI-DEX® is a non-ionic blend of special surfactants and a highly refined spray oil and is designed for use with a broad range of pesticides where an oil concentrate adjuvant is recommended. Subject to the cautionary statements set forth in the Directions for Use, AGRI-DEX® may be used with other pesticides and/or fertilizer products. The addition of AGRI-DEX® to a spray tank improves pesticide application by modifying the wetting and deposition characteristics of the spray solution resulting in a more even and uniform spray deposit. AGRI-DEX® can positively affect pesticide spray application and pesticide efficacy. Optimum application and effects, however, can be influenced by the crop, pest, spray equipment, spray volume, pressure, droplet size, spray mixture and environmental factors. Consequently, it is recommended that careful observations of the spray deposit be made and adjuvant concentrations be adjusted accordingly.

Applications & Uses

Directions for Use
  • FOR USE WITH PRODUCTS REGISTERED FOR: AGRICULTURAL, AQUATIC, FORESTRY, INDUSTRIAL, MUNICIPAL, NON-CROPLAND, ORNAMENTAL, RIGHTS-OF-WAY, AND TURF.
  • The addition of an adjuvant to some pesticides or pesticide tank mix combinations may cause phytotoxicity to the foliage and/or fruit of susceptible crops. Prior to the addition of AGRI-DEX® to spray tank mixes or prior to the use of AGRI-DEX® with a pesticide or fertilizer where an oil concentrate adjuvant is not specifically recommended but not prohibited by the manufacturer, the user or application advisor must have experience with the combination or must have conducted a phytotoxicity trial.
  • AGRI-DEX® may be applied by Ground, CDA, Aerial or Aquatic spray equipment and any other type spray equipment recommended by pesticide labels. In most applications, use enough AGRI-DEX® to allow for uniform wetting and deposition of the spray onto plant surfaces without undue runoff. GROUND: Use 1-4 pints per acre or 1.0% by v/v with a minimum of .50% by volume. AERIAL, LOW VOLUME, CDA: Use 4-8 pints per 100 gallons water or .50-1.00 % v/v concentration.
  • AQUATIC: Use 1-4 pints per acre. NOTE: The above use recommendations are considered to be adequate for most uses. Do not exceed 2.5% v/v concentration. Some pesticides, however, may require higher or lower rates for optimum effect. Follow the pesticide label directions when this occurs. CAUTION: Do not mix with oxidizing agents unless oxidizing agents are in solution.
Mixing Guidelines
  • Prior to any pesticide application all spray mixing and application equipment must be cleaned. Carefully observe all cleaning directions on the pesticide label.
  • Fill spray tank one-half full with water and begin agitation. Add pesticides and/or fertilizers as directed by labeling or in the following sequence:
  1. Dry flowables or water dispersible granules
  2. Wettable powders
  3. Flowables
  4. Solutions
  5. Emulsifiable concentrates

and continue filling. Add AGRI-DEX® last and continue agitating.

Storage & Handling

Storage and Disposal
  • Do not contaminate water, food or feed by storage or disposal.
  • STORAGE: Store in original container only. Keep container tightly closed. Do not allow water to be introduced into the contents of this container. Do not store near heat or open flame. Do not store with oxidizing agents or ammonium nitrate.
  • PESTICIDE DISPOSAL: Wastes resulting from the use of this product may be dispersed of on site or at an approved waste disposal facility. Do not contaminate water sources by runoff from cleaning of equipment, disposal of cleaning equipment wash waters, or spray waste.
  • CONTAINER DISPOSAL:Do not reuse empty container. Triple rinse (or equivalent) during mixing and loading and add rinsate to spray tank. Recycling decontaminated containers is the best option of container disposal. The Agricultural Container Recycling Council (ACRC) operates the national recycling program. To contact your state and local ACRC recycler visit the ACRC web page at www.acrecycle.org. Decontaminated containers may also be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. For help in chemical emergencies involving spill, leak, fire or exposure, call toll free 1-800-424-9300.
  • REFILLABLE CONTAINER:Refill this container with adjuvants only. Do not reuse this container for any other purpose. Cleaning the container before final disposal is the responsibility of the person disposing of the container. Cleaning before refilling is the responsibility of the refiller. To clean the container before final disposal, empty the remaining contents from the container into application equipment or mix tank. Fill the container about 10 percent full with water. Agitate vigorously or recirculate water with the pump for 2 minutes. Pour or pump rinsate into application equipment or rinsate collection system. Repeat this rinsing procedure two more times. If the container is not being refilled, return the container to the point of purchase.
