OHP, Inc. announces the availability of the new and improved Marengo® granular herbicide formulation.
The new formulation of Marengo G allows for easier application and provides the same effective performance.
“We’re pleased with the initial response and market acceptance we saw with the original Marengo G formulation,” notes Dan Stahl, OHP vice president of marketing and business development. “We feel Marengo G produced on the new granule will result in even greater market penetration.”
The new Marengo G formulation, with its active ingredient indaziflam, is produced on granules that utilize the proprietary Verge® technology, resulting in larger, heavier, and more uniform particles that offer several advantages for users:
- Reduced dust for less applicator exposure;
- More uniform coverage;
- More accurate, on-target applications even in breezier conditions;
- Less chance for plant injury as the heavier particle rolls freely off of plant surfaces
The new formulation looks and handles much like Biathlon®, another quality OHP herbicide, notes David Barcel, OHP senior technical manager for herbicides and PGRs.
“Both Marengo G and Biathlon are produced utilizing the Verge granule technology,” says Barcel. “We have received nothing but positive feedback from Biathlon users and anticipate the same with Marengo G.”
Marengo G offers effective, long-term pre-emergent control of both broadleaf and grassy weeds with little effect on desirable plants. The product does not volatilize and does not move in the soil once it is watered-in after application.
Marengo G can be applied over-the-top of containers in nurseries, and may be applied in hoop, shade and lath houses.
