Larger chemical sizes
Bayer CropScience’s Thumper and Buctril M herbicides are now available in 130 litre, bulk-shuttle containers.
The new size contains enough chemical to treat 320 acres at the recommended label rate. The containers allow producers and bulk applicators to handle equal amounts of Buctril M, Thumper and Puma 120 Super, which is also available in a 130-litre size.
The larger bulk containers reduce filling times, minimize packaging and are well-suited to bulk commercial applications. Each product comes in its own colour-coded container.
