Mixing order
- Ensure the spray tank is clean before use.
- Fill the spray tank 1/2 full of water and start agitation.
- If tank mixing with Liberty 150 herbicide: add Amigo, then add Liberty 150, agitate moderately, then add Centurion, in sequential order.
- If tank mixing with Liberty 150 and Facet® L herbicide: add Amigo8, then add Liberty 150, agitate moderately, then add Facet L, followed by Centurion, in sequential order.
- Continue agitation while adding the remaining amount of water.
Note: Centurion can be antagonized by high levels of bicarbonates in water (300 mg/L is of concern and 500 mg/L or higher will cause issues). The simple remedy is to mix AMS 1.00% v/v.
7 For tank mixing, follow recommendations of tank-mix partners.
8 Merge® adjuvant can be used in place of Amigo. The two adjuvants cannot be mixed together.
