This one-gallon (128 oz) bottle of Southern Ag non-ionic surfactant helps herbicide sprays spread more evenly across plant surfaces and promotes better contact with target foliage. Because it contains 80% non-ionic surfactant, it’s compatible with a wide range of post-emergent and pre-emergent herbicide formulations commonly used in lawns, landscapes, and agricultural settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the surfactant improve herbicide performance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe surfactant lowers the surface tension of spray water so droplets flatten and spread rather than bead. That increased surface area helps herbicide droplets stick to leaves, increases coverage, and aids absorption or translocation depending on the herbicide used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces water beading on waxy or hairy leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePromotes uniform spray coverage across foliage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEnhances penetration and contact of active ingredients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich herbicides can I safely mix this with?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSouthern Ag Surfactant is non-ionic and formulated for broad compatibility with many common herbicide products.
