Improve accuracy when spraying your crops
Argosy® RF keeps your pesticides on the leaf even through rain events and irrigation.
Argosy® RF
Rain-Fast Polymer Adjuvant
Argosy RF is a rain-fast, soluble, environmentally safe polymer matrix composed of inert ingredients. It encapsulates pesticides keeping them on the leaf even through rain events and irrigation. When tank mixed, Argosy RF enhances wetting and adhesion, as well as facilitates uniform foliar distribution of the pesticide.
Argosy RF draws ambient moisture from the atmosphere to the leaf.
Key Benefits
- Sticker – When sprayed on the leaf surface, Argosy RF enhances the adhesion of spray droplets to the leaf. Argosy RF also keeps the pesticide on the leaf surface even when irrigation or rainfall occurs, extending the life of chemical applications. This means fewer applications and longer efficacy.
- Spreader – When combined with a pesticide, Argosy RF encourages uniform coverage of the product across the leaf allowing the active ingredient to be better absorbed by the plant.
- Elasticity – The revolutionary elastic nature of Argosy RF allows the material to stretch as the plant leaf grows, keeping the application of the pesticide on the plant longer. This means fewer applications and longer efficacy.
- Drought Tolerance – Argosy RF is a retention agent. It has the ability to bind with water, keeping moisture on a targeted substrate longer.
- Drift Control – Argosy RF forms heavier, larger drops that reach the target wet and holds it there. Trials have shown that up to 100% of applied aerial applications hit their target.
