The Andersons Expands List of Approved Products for Tank Mix Compatibility
Posted on June 19, 2019
MAUMEE, OHIO, June 19, 2019 –The Andersons, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANDE) announces new approvals for tank mix compatibility and the release of Eezy™ Man Gen II.
The Andersons strives to be on the cutting edge of technology. In pursuit of this, many of its products have been tested and approved to be compliant with EPA tank mixing regulations. Several of its products, such as Phosfix® and Korrect™, are approved to be tank mixed with one or all of the following herbicides: XtendiMax® with VaporGrip® Technology, FeXapan™, Engenia
The newest addition to the company's list of approved products is EezyMan Gen II for mixing with Engenia herbicide. EezyMan Gen II is a blend of manganese and sulfur designed for foliar application on crops that often require manganese. The product is formulated to achieve compatibility with most selective and non-selective pesticides commonly tank mixed. A proprietary blend of chelating agents preserves the efficacy of pesticides while maintaining the availability of manganese.
“EezyMan Gen II will replace our current EezyMan on the market,” stated Sarah Pirolli, Vice President of Sales for The Andersons Plant Nutrient Group. “EezyMan Gen II offers the same valuable benefits and analysis of EezyMan, but with an adjusted pH value to reduce effect on spray drift volatility.”
To receive approval for tank mix compatibility, a product must undergo spray drift testing to ensure a low volatility when used in the field. Researchers evaluate droplet size distribution in a low-speed wind tunnel. Results are then evaluated to determine if the product mix is acceptable to be used in the field.
The Andersons currently has 11 foliar nutrient products listed to mix with different herbicides, with more under review. Visit www.andersonsplantnutrient.com/agriculture/tank-mix for the most up-to-date list of product approvals.
