Aquatic Herbicide

Available exclusively at Tractor Supply Co.

FarmWorks Aquatic Herbicide is a complete broad-spectrum post-emergence herbicide for weed control in aquatic sites. This product can be applied to emerged weeds in all bodies of fresh and brackish water which may be flowing, non-flowing or transient. This includes lakes, rivers, streams, ponds, estuaries, rice levees, seeps, irrigation and drainage ditches, canals, reservoirs and wastewater treatment facilities.

Serious weed control for aquatic sites.

Where to use:

Use to control weeds, woody brush and trees in aquatic sites including:

Lakes Ponds Seeps Reservoirs
Rivers Estuaries Streams Rice levees
Irrigation and drainage ditches Wastewater treatment facilities Canals  

When to use:

Annual weeds are easiest to control when they are small. Best control of most perennial weeds is obtained when treatment is made at late growth stages approaching maturity. See the “WEEDS CONTROLLED” section of this label for specific weed rates.

Always use the higher product application rate in the specified range when weed growth is heavy or dense, or when weeds are growing in an undisturbed (non-cultivated) area.

Reduced weed control may result from treating weeds with disease or insect damage, weeds heavily covered with dust, or weeds under poor growing conditions.

For best results, spray coverage must be uniform and complete.

Do not spray foliage to the point of run-off.

How to use:

Advice

  1. Stockpiling Warm Season Grasses

    Less-than-optimum weather conditions, as well as the cost of fertilizer, fuel, and other production inputs are factors that often make it difficult for livestock producers to make a profit.  Providing  nutrition during times when pasture is not available is one of the costliest aspects of producing livestock, so it makes [...]

  2. PASTURES TELL A STORY

    A livestock producer learns a lot about a pasture over time by managing it, but that is not the only way to obtain information about a given field. Often, a great deal can be gained from simple observation, because various plants are more likely to become established and thrive under [...]

  3. KEY HAY STORAGE CONCEPTS

    Providing nutrition when little or no pasture forage is available constitutes the single largest expense associated with most livestock operations. In most cases, hay is the most logical type of stored feed to use. Generally, the less hay required, the greater the cost effectiveness of an operation, and how hay [...]

  4. Job Done Right Podcast Episode 5: The Do's and Don'ts of RM43

    RM43 is the most effective, commercially available product for killing and preventing grass and weeds. It was developed based on customer requests for a more potent herbicide that wouldn’t require respraying during the growing season. This episode of our podcast features Ragan & Massey co-owner Tom Ragan. It first aired [...]

  5. IRRIGATION OF FORAGE CROPS

    Livestock producers are aware (in fact, as a result of droughts we have had in recent years they are painfully aware) of the fact that dry weather reduces forage growth, which lowers pasture and hay forage growth. This in turn results in a need for more hay or other stored [...]
