For further details on PandA application. The table in this case study provides directions for use of PandA with a range of crops.



  DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Product evaluation Label only

Caution:  This label is a guide only. Undiluted and high concentrations  of PandA  may have a herbicidal and fungicidal effect. While at low concentrations it acts as a BioStimulant having significant beneficial effects on crop nutrition, quality, yield  and soil health.  PandA must be tested on a small area to observe crop reaction under the prevailing environmental and application conditions as these may alter the outcome.  All foliar applications are based on wetting the foliage thoroughly to the point of run-off   * ( POR)
