OHP announces improved Marengo G herbicide

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.
