ForceU-ron with its active agent as Diuron, is a substituted urea herbicide used to control a wide variety of annual and perennial broadleaf and grassy weeds. It is used to control weeds and mosses on non-crop areas and among many agricultural crops such as fruit, cotton, sugar cane and legumes. It works by inhibiting photosynthesis.
ForceU-ron 1kg herbicide is applied as a spray for selective control of weeds in certain crops and for non-selective weed control on non-cropland areas. ForceU-ron herbicide may be applied to soil prior to emergence of weeds to control susceptible weed seedlings for an extended period of time.
It is suitable for the control of weeds in asparagus, bananas, cereals, cotton, lucerne, lupins, pulse crops and sugarcane.

General Instructions:
- Before opening, carefully read Directions For Use, Precautionary Statements, Safety Directions and First Aid Instructions.
Application should be made to moist soil before weeds emerge unless otherwise recommended. Sufficient moisture in the form of rain or irrigation is necessary after application to move the chemical into the weed root zone. Add Wetspray® where recommended.
Thoroughly clean all traces of this product from application equipment immediately after use, otherwise injury to desirable vegetation may result when equipment is used again. Flush tank, pump, hose and boom
with several changes of water after removing nozzle tip and screens (clean these parts separately).
- Keep from contact with fertilisers,insecticides, fungicides and seeds.
Mixing:
Part fill tank with CLEAN water (50%). Commence vigorous agitation.
Add granules steadily.
