Alternative Strategy
Chemicals Applied in Non-Liquid Form. Timberlands Limited now purchase a hexazinone and terbuthylazine mix in granular form. This reduces the risks from spillage when transporting and storing. There is also less waste residue. The production of the granular formulation was as a direct request to the pesticide manufacturer from Timberlands Limited to minimise environmental risk.
