NOTE: The Hard Water Inactivation Potential only addresses the spray water, not the potential of dry dusty leaf surfaces or Dirty Weeds to inactivate glyphosate.

* These are, to the best of our knowledge, the appropriate amounts of ModipHy.
In addition, when weeds are under drought stress, cold weather conditions, or when weed surfaces are dusty, a higher rate of ModipHy may prove beneficial. Refer to the ModipHy label for detailed instructions.
