Arsenal® Super Herbicide By BASF - Australia Packshot

Arsenal® Super

Herbicide

Advanced control of unwanted vegetation for up to six months

Mode of action: Group 2 herbicide 
Active ingredient(s): 240 g/L Imazapyr present as the isopropylamine
Formulation: Soluble concentrate (SC)

Arsenal® Super is the latest, optimised formulation of a proven herbicide solution for non-crop situations where long-term vegetation management is required. Arsenal Super will keep a very wide range of grass and broadleaf weeds controlled for up to six months along fence lines, firebreaks, irrigation channels, rights of way, roadside verges and railways. It can also be used around commercial, industrial and agricultural buildings. Most effective as a standalone solution when used on bare earth or newly emerged weeds, Arsenal Super can be tank-mixed with glyphosate and other knockdown herbicides to control larger plants.

Key benefits

  • 6 months + residual control
  • Strengthen existing IWM strategies
  • Pre and post emergent control

How it works

Arsenal® Super is an aqueous solution that will kill a range of standing weeds and emerging seedlings. It stops growth rapidly, although symptoms may take over 30 days to develop. Affected plants are discoloured and often growth is distorted. The active material in Arsenal is rapidly absorbed through foliage and roots, and translocated throughout plants. Foliage treatments will provide pre-emergent control as the active material is released to the soil following plant decay. Residual control of weeds, for which the lower rate of Arsenal is recommended, will increase when the higher rate is used.

More about Arsenal Super

  • Situational Use Pattern – Industrial Weed Control

    Arsenal Super offers a versatile situational use pattern perfect for industrial weed control spray programs. Suitable for pre- and post- emergent control, Arsenal Super is suitable for use around agricultural buildings or other non-crop situations in commercial, industrial, and public service areas. Arsenal Super consistently controls unwanted vegetation with residual for up to 6 months. 

  • Situational Use Pattern – Nursery & Surrounds

    Arsenal Super offers a diverse use pattern around fixed nursery structures, fence lines, and under seeding/planting tables, where long-term weed control is imperative. Applications can be made pre- or post- emergence via handgun or knapsack. Arsenal Super stops growth rapidly although symptoms may take over 30 days to develop. Affected plants are discoloured and growth is distorted. Arsenal Super is rapidly absorbed through foliage and roots and translocated throughout the plants. 
    Do not use where water will be collected for irrigation, or in areas where potted plants roots will be in contact with treated surfaces.
