    We have sprays here in the shed, my late uncle used to do spraying for himself and others with the quad sprayer, if anyone could be so kind as to tell us what these sprays are best for:

    Basf U46r
    MCPA Amine 500
    Gallup 360
    Agritox
    Unichem IPU 500

    Like most people we have rushes, docks, and want to spray under and behind the electric fences (ditches were all cut last year). He was big into keeping ragwort under control, even known to have given the neighbours an earful over their ragwort!

    MCPA Amine 500.... Selective in that when applied in correct ammounts it will kill weeds other than grass, commonly used on Rushes, not so much on Docks.
    Gallup 360... Non Selective - kills plants through green foliage, use under fences and on general weeds where you want it clear.. Its a more affordable version of roundup.
    Agritox
    Unichem IPU 500

    ipu 500 is a grass weed spray , generally used on winter barley or wheat. can be used around yards to keep weeds down . agritox is a form of cmpp. not cleared for use on grassland anymore if I remember correctly. just checked ,agritox is a form of mcpa as is u46
