The uniformity and size of the bait has real advantages when broadcast spreading either alone or when mixed with Lime, Super Phosphate, DAP, Cropmaster products or Urea, ensuring a very even spread. This size and uniformity is also ideal for drilling direct or where it is required to be mixed with fertiliser or with seed.
Each individual pellet is very robust and will not shatter or break easily which means no dust and is very user friendly when mixing and handling. Endure is effective through contact, absorption and ingestion and is more active under moist conditions.
There is no need to reapply after rain or sprinkler irrigation.
