Creating Custom Herbicide Blends with DuPont’s PrecisionPac 3.0

If you’ve wished for custom blended herbicide types or specific volumes of a tank-mix, DuPont’s latest PrecisionPac offering may be of interest.

Precision pac 3DuPont Crop Protection recently rolled out its PrecisionPac 3.0 herbicide blending concept, a specially-designed delivery system that dispenses customized herbicide blends.

“Most crop protection products are sold in packaged 40-acre increments, leaving leftover herbicide and packaging to dispose of,” says Rob McClinton, product manager for DuPont PrecisionPac herbicides. “With PrecisionPac, a grower can purchase a tailored blend to treat, for example, 132 acres. This saves money, reduces unnecessary packaging and decreases the risk of application errors.”

The new 3.0 model features simultaneous product metering and three-times faster dispensing, plus wireless troubleshooting, says DuPont.

Watch for this latest generation herbicide blending technology in time for the 2016 growing season.
