IntraCrop Inferno

Inferno improves the deposition and retention of spray droplets, and is an effective pH buffer, water conditioner and anti-foam. Inferno significantly reduces the number of spray droplets under 100 microns, reducing spray drift by up to 75%. Additional studies demonstrated less glyphosate drift at 70cm with Inferno compared with glyphosate alone at 50cm (Source: Silsoe trials 2019), improving product performance and environmental profile. Inferno softens hard water by effective and rapid sequestration of Ca2+ and Mg2+. These hard water cations are bound and rendered unavailable in a soluble form.

Eurofins 2018 Trial: Blackgrass control

The addition of Inferno at 0.5% (0.5 liters / 100 liters spray volume) significantly increased the level of blackgrass control, the higher rate 1% (1.0 liter / 100 liters spray gave a further significant improvement in control (p≤0.05).

Test Data

Effective Drift Reduction

Independent studies conducted by Silsoe Spray Applications Unit have demonstrated that the inclusion of 1% Inferno can reduce the amount of spray drift by up to 75% (see Figure 1). This achieved by using polyacrylamide polymers that reduce the number of fine spray droplets (<100 microns) that are most prone to drift, from 19.49% to 9.49% resulting increasing the Volume Median Diameter (VMD), see Table 1 below.
