Valdo 800WG is a clover-friendly herbicide, for the control of many broadleaf weeds. Valdo 800WG will control or suppress broadleaf weeds without damaging clovers, chicory or lucerne. Valdo will control chickweed, fathen, shepherd’s purse, sorrel, spurrey, stinking mayweed, buttercup (annual and perennial), mallow and willow weed.
|
Tank mix partner
|
Valdo 800WG works well as a tank mix with Baton® and Thistrol® Plus to broaden the weed spectrum when spraying new pasture. The use of spraying oil with Valdo and Baton on pasture will increase clover damage and is not recommended unless the pasture has been well grazed first before spraying.
|
Directions for use
|
Apply to weeds in active growth. Do not apply in cold, wet conditions. Always apply Valdo 800WG in mixture with a suitable spraying oil e.g. Bonza® at 500ml/100L of water.

Application
|
Make sure that spray equipment is correctly calibrated. Ensure complete spray coverage for best results. Do not overspray. Aerial and ground broadcast application: apply Valdo 800WG in 100-300L/ha of water. Use the higher water rate where weeds are dense. CDA application: use the large (250-300 micron) droplet size and apply not less than 30L/ha of water. Trials indicate that CDA application may result in less effective weed control than conventional boom spraying.
|
Withholding period
|
Do not graze crops or treated pasture for 14 days after treatment.
|
Crop Rotation
|
Do not plant susceptible crops until three months after application of Valdo 800WG. Susceptible crops include all brassica species, sunflowers, lupins and beans. Do not allow spray to drift onto susceptible crops or on land to be planted with susceptible crops.
