What is Fosinate 200SL used for?
Fosinate 200SL is a non-selective, contact herbicide (Group N) for controlling a wide range of annual and perennial broadleaf and grass weeds. It is registered for use in fruit and nut orchards, vineyards, plantations, strawberries and cane berries (inter-row), tomatoes (inter-row), and in non-agricultural areas including rights-of-way, commercial and industrial areas and other non-agricultural situations, as set out in the Directions for Use table.
Which weeds does Fosinate 200SL control?
Fosinate 200SL controls many annual and perennial broadleaf and grass weeds listed in Tables 1 and 2 on the label, including species such as barnyard grass, summer grass, ryegrass, wild oats, capeweed, fat hen, wireweed, Caltrop burr, Lesser canary grass, Liverseed grass, Variegated thistle, and Sida weed. Some weeds have specific notes or higher rates in Table 2 for commercial and industrial areas, rights-of-way and other non-agricultural areas, and these must be followed where Table 1 refers you to Table 2.
In which crops and situations can I use Fosinate 200SL?
Fosinate 200SL can be used as a directed or shielded spray in avocado, banana, feijoa, guava, kiwifruit, litchi, mango, pawpaw, passionfruit, pineapple, rambutan, citrus orchards, olive plantations, pome and stone fruit orchards, tree nut plantations and vineyards. It is also registered for inter-row use in strawberries, cane berry fruits and tomatoes, for primocane sucker control in blackberry, boysenberry, loganberry and raspberry, and for use in rights-of-way, commercial and industrial areas and other non-agricultural areas, as detailed in the Directions for Use table.
How do I choose the correct Fosinate 200SL rate?
The recommended rate of Fosinate 200SL is determined by weed species, weed growth stage, weed density and climatic conditions. The label directions explain that lower rates are used on young, succulent weeds and sparse populations, median rates on medium-sized weeds, and higher rates on mature or dense weeds, with additional higher rates for certain weeds in non-agricultural areas as shown in Table 2.
Can I use Fosinate 200SL before planting or between rows?
Yes, Fosinate 200SL can be used in the inter-row area of strawberries, cane berry fruits and tomatoes, and in non-agricultural situations such as rights-of-way, commercial and industrial areas and other non-crop areas, as long as you follow the Directions for Use table. Applications in inter-row situations must be directed or shielded so that spray or spray drift does not contact crop foliage, runners or green bark, and you should also follow the warnings about plastic mulch and fumigated or sterilised soil in the General Instructions.
Can Fosinate 200SL be tank-mixed with other herbicides or adjuvants?
The General Instructions state that Fosinate 200SL is compatible with most residual herbicides such as simazine, diuron, oxyfluorfen, norfluazuron and oryzalin, and with glyphosate and metsulfuron, where such tank mixes are recommended on the label. A non-ionic wetting agent may be added at 25 mL/100 L (or equivalent) on hard-to-wet weeds when higher water rates are used, but residual herbicides or adjuvants must not be mixed with Fosinate 200SL when using controlled droplet (CDA) equipment.
What should I do to avoid spray drift and protect sensitive crops?
The label instructs that Fosinate 200SL must not be applied under weather conditions, or from equipment, that may cause spray drift onto nearby susceptible plants, crops, cropping land or pastures. You must avoid spraying desirable foliage or green (uncalloused) bark, shield young trees and vines less than two years old from spray and spray drift, and avoid treating plastic mulches or recently fumigated or sterilised soils where crop foliage could later contact treated surfaces.
What personal protective equipment (PPE) is recommended when using Fosinate 200SL?
The safety directions require that Fosinate 200SL should only be handled and applied while wearing suitable protective clothing and chemical-resistant gloves, and you must wash hands and exposed skin after use and after handling contaminated clothing. You should not allow contact with skin or eyes, must avoid inhaling spray mist, and must follow any additional PPE instructions on the main container label and Safety Data Sheet.
What are the grazing and harvest withholding periods for Fosinate 200SL?
When Fosinate 200SL is used as directed, a harvest withholding period is not required for avocado, banana, blackberry, boysenberry, citrus fruit, feijoa, grapes, guava, kiwifruit, litchi, loganberry, mango, olives, passionfruit, pawpaw, pineapple, rambutan, raspberry, strawberries, tomatoes and tree nuts. For pome and stone fruit, the label states “do not harvest for 21 days after application”, and you must not graze or cut treated areas for stock food for 8 weeks after application.
How should Fosinate 200SL be stored and how do I dispose of containers?
Fosinate 200SL should be stored in the closed, original container in a cool, well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight and out of reach of children. Triple-rinsed empty containers should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations, for example through an approved drum recovery program, and unused product or washings must not be allowed to enter drains, waterways or sewers.
What should I do in case of a spill or accidental exposure?
In the event of a spill, the label directs you to contain the spill, absorb it with inert material and dispose of collected material according to local regulations, preventing any run-off from entering drains or waterways. If there is accidental exposure, follow the first-aid instructions on the label and Safety Data Sheet, seek medical advice if symptoms occur, and have the product label or container with you when seeking assistance.

APPLICATION GUIDE
This Application Guide explains how to use Fosinate 200SL safely and effectively across the approved crop, plantation and non-agricultural situations. Use it together with the Directions for Use table and weed control tables to select the right rate, timing and application method for your situation.
Always read this guide with the product label and Directions for Use leaflet. They remain the legal authority for rates, restraints, withholding periods and safety directions, and must be followed in preference to any summary on this page.
General application notes
- Fosinate 200SL is a non-volatile, non-residual herbicide with activity against many annual and perennial broadleaf weeds and grasses. It is absorbed by foliage and green stems and will only control the parts of the plant contacted by spray; it does not provide residual soil weed control.
- Visible symptoms of control usually appear in 3–7 days, but complete desiccation may take 20–30 days under cool conditions. Best results are achieved when application is made under good growing conditions.
- Avoid spraying weeds that are under severe stress, for example from continuous frost, very dry or waterlogged conditions, or disease.
- When using knapsack or handgun equipment, apply Fosinate 200SL at label rates in sufficient water to thoroughly wet the weeds being sprayed. As a guide, 500–1000 L/ha has given good results, with denser stands needing the higher water rates.
- When using boom or directed sprayers, apply at label rates in enough water to achieve complete coverage. Water volumes of around 300–500 L/ha have given good results under most weed conditions. Avoid setups that create dust and turbulence, which can move spray into non-target areas.
- Controlled Droplet Application (CDA) equipment may be used for row spraying where specified, using a solid impermeable shroud or skirt and rates equivalent to boom or directed sprayers. Apply preferably when weeds are less than 15 cm high and set the dome so it just touches the weed tops. Total spray volumes of about 20–30 L/ha have given good results.
- Do not mix residual herbicides or spray adjuvants with Fosinate 200SL when using CDA equipment. CDA equipment must not be used in cherry orchards. Avoid any contact of the concentrated spray with crop trunks or canopies, and take special care around green or uncalloused bark.
- Fosinate 200SL is compatible with most residual herbicides (for example simazine, diuron, oxyfluorfen, norfluazuron and oryzalin), and with glyphosate and metsulfuron, where tank mixes are recommended on the label. Follow label directions for compatible wetting agents or adjuvants on hard-to-wet weeds when using higher water rates.
Resistance management
Fosinate 200SL is a Group N herbicide. To help delay the development of herbicide resistance, avoid repeated applications of Group N herbicides as the sole form of control and rotate with herbicides from other mode-of-action groups as part of an integrated weed management strategy. Always consult local advice on resistance management where available.
Situations & Crops – Directions for Use
This section summarises where Fosinate 200SL can be used, the approved rate ranges and key comments for each crop, plantation and non-agricultural situation. Use this table to match your situation, then refer to the weed control tables to select the appropriate rate for your target weeds.
Always stay within the situations, rates and timings shown here. Where the Weeds column refers you to Tables 1 or 2, use those tables to confirm which weeds are controlled and which rate applies under the label.
| Crop / Situation | Weeds | State | Rate | WHP | Critical comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rights-of-way, commercial and industrial areas, and other non-agricultural areas | See lists of weeds controlled in Tables 1 and 2 | All States | 1L to 6L/ha | - | Determine the recommended rate of use by considering the criteria weed species, weed stage of growth, weed density and climatic conditions as described above. Do not allow spray or spray drift to contact desirable plants. To avoid potential crop damage, refer to the label sections on Application Equipment and PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS. |
| Line-marking on sports grounds | Turf grasses and other weeds | All States | 250mL to 500mL/100L water | - | Refer to GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS. Fosinate 200SL Herbicide is a non-selective, non-residual herbicide with limited translocation potential. It is therefore ideally suited for line-marking on sports fields where precise weed control is required. Apply at 6–8 week intervals depending on growth of turf. Apply using single boom or hand wand. |
| Blackberry, Boysenberry, Loganberry, Raspberry Primocane sucker control | - | NSW, ACT, VIC, TAS | 500mL/100L water | Nil | Apply as a directed spray to suckers and primocanes. Contact with flowers, developing fruit or desirable foliage will cause damage. Ensure complete coverage of primocanes and suckers by spraying to the point of run-off, preferably when they are less than 15cm high. A non-ionic wetting agent 1000g/L may be added at a rate of 25mL/100L or equivalent. |
| Avocado, Banana, Feijoa, Guava, Kiwifruit, Litchi, Mango, Pawpaw, Passionfruit, Pineapple, Rambutan, Plantations | See lists of weeds controlled in Tables 1 and 2 | QLD, NSW, ACT, VIC, SA, WA, NT only | 1L to 5L/ha | Nil | Apply as a directed or shielded spray. Refer to the label section Application Equipment for specific information on application methods. Controlled Droplet Application (CDA) equipment must not be used for application in cherry orchards. Warnings: DO NOT allow spray or spray drift to contact desirable foliage or green (uncalloused) bark. To avoid potential crop damage, refer to the label sections on Application Equipment and PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS. Fosinate 200SL Herbicide may be used around trees / vines less than two years old, provided they are effectively shielded from spray and spray drift. The recommended rate of use is determined by the following criteria: • WEED SPECIES • WEED GROWTH STAGE • WEED DENSITY • CLIMATIC CONDITIONS WEED SPECIES Apply the appropriate rate to control the least susceptible weed present as per the lists of weeds controlled in the accompanying tables. WEED STAGE OF GROWTH Use the lower rate when weeds are young and succulent (grasses: pre-tillering; broadleaves: cotyledons to 4-leaf) or the population is very sparse. A median rate should be used for medium sized plants (grasses: tillering; broadleaves: 4-leaf to advanced vegetative) and the high rate should be used when weeds are mature (grasses: noding to flowering; broadleaves: budding to flowering). WEED DENSITY Use the higher rates when the weed population is dense. Thorough coverage of weeds is essential for good control. CLIMATIC CONDITIONS Best results are achieved when applied under warm humid conditions. Control will be reduced and/or slower under cold conditions and/or overcast conditions. Good results will be achieved under most other conditions. However, poor results may occur under hot dry conditions (temperature above 33°C with a relative humidity below 50%). Weeds that have been hardened or stunted in growth due to stressed conditions should be treated at the maximum rate. COVERAGE Complete coverage of weeds is essential for good control. Poor coverage may result in re-growth. PERENNIAL WEEDS Apply when weeds are actively growing. Follow-up treatments will be necessary to control re-growth of perennial weeds in most cases. |
