Fodder Brassica Rates


Pest

Rate


Springtails
100-200ml/ha
Leaf miner, White butterfly, Nysius (wheat bug)
0.5-1L/ha
Diamondback moth, Aphids
0.75 - 1L/ha
Apply when insects first appear or damage becomes visible. Use the low rate on young crops and the higher rate once the crop has reached canopy closure. Repeat applications may be necessary during the growing season as these pests have highly mobile stages and re-invasion can occur. It is important to monitor for pests at least weekly throughout the growing season.

Fodder Beet Rates


Pest

Rate


Springtails
100-200ml/ha at first sign of damage
Leaf miner, Nysius (wheat bug) & Aphids
0.5-1L/ha at first sign of damage. Use the low rate on young crops and high rate as canopy closes. Use 100-300ml water/ha and add Contact™ XCel
Note: Due to the sensitive nature of fodder beet seedlings, Attack is best applied alone to prevent crop damage.

Application Directions


Apply Attack in at least 100-300 litres water/ha. Use the lower water rate on young crops and higher rate when the crop has reached canopy closure. For ariel applications, use the lower water rate. The use of a non-ionic wetting agent such as Contact™Xcel (25-50ml/100L water) is recommended to improve coverage. Note: Avoid tank mixing Attack with herbicides unless compatibility and crop safety is known.

Stock Withholding Period


Attack has a 7 day withholding period for grazing animals. Sheep and deer should be held from slaughter for 7 days if fed crops treated within 7-14 days of application.
