What is N-Spreader?

N-Spreader is a silicone-based agricultural adjuvant designed to improve the wetting and spreading of agricultural spray solutions.

When a spray droplet lands on a plant leaf, surface tension can cause the liquid to remain as a bead rather than spreading evenly. Silicone-based surfactants can reduce surface tension and promote more rapid spreading across plant surfaces.

N-Spreader is intended to help agricultural spray solutions achieve more uniform wetting and coverage when used according to the label directions of the N-Spreader and the agricultural product being applied.

It is an adjuvant, not the primary pesticide, fungicide or herbicide.

Benefits of N-Spreader

N-Spreader is designed to support the physical performance and distribution of agricultural spray solutions:

🌱 Better Spray Wetting

N-Spreader is designed to improve the wetting of agricultural spray solutions on plant surfaces.

💧 Improved Spreading

Its silicone-based surfactant action helps spray droplets spread more uniformly instead of remaining concentrated in small droplets.

🌿 More Uniform Spray Coverage

Better spreading can help distribute the spray solution more evenly across the treated plant surface.

🔬 Supports Spray Penetration

Silicone-based agricultural adjuvants can facilitate greater contact and, depending on the companion product and formulation, may improve uptake of compatible spray ingredients.

⚡ Helps Improve Spray Efficiency

An appropriate adjuvant can help a compatible spray solution make better contact with its intended plant surface. However, an adjuvant does not replace the recommended dose or application instructions of the primary agricultural product.

📦 Useful With Different Agricultural Inputs

The N-Spreader label identifies its use with agricultural chemicals including broadleaf herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, and water-soluble plant growth regulators. Always check the label of the companion product before tank mixing.

How Does a Silicone Adjuvant Work?

A silicone adjuvant works primarily by changing the wetting behaviour of the spray solution.

Water-based spray droplets can bead up on waxy or difficult-to-wet leaf surfaces. By reducing surface tension, organosilicone surfactants can allow droplets to spread more readily across the treated surface.

This can help improve:

  • Spray wetting
  • Droplet spreading
  • Surface coverage
  • Contact between the spray solution and plant surface
  • Distribution of compatible agricultural inputs

The actual performance depends on the formulation, companion agricultural product, crop surface, weather conditions and application method.

Can N-Spreader Be Used With Pesticides?

N-Spreader is an agricultural spray adjuvant intended to support the application of compatible agricultural products. A silicone adjuvant can improve wetting and spreading of spray droplets, which may help the companion product achieve more uniform contact with the treated surface. However: N-Spreader does not replace the pesticide itself and does not increase the legally recommended pesticide dose. Always follow the pesticide manufacturer’s label for recommended dose, crop, target pest, application timing, water volume, compatibility, and safety precautions.

Can N-Spreader Be Used With Fungicides?

The N-Spreader label identifies fungicides among the agricultural products with which it can be used as an adjuvant. Its purpose is to support wetting and spreading of the spray solution rather than provide fungicidal activity itself. Use the recommended fungicide dose and follow its label instructions when preparing the tank mixture.

Can N-Spreader Be Used With Herbicides?

The N-Spreader label identifies herbicides, particularly water-soluble agricultural herbicide applications, among its intended uses. A silicone-based spray adjuvant can improve wetting and spreading of spray droplets, potentially improving contact between the spray solution and the intended plant surface. Always follow the herbicide label because the required adjuvant type and rate can vary between products.

Can a Silicone Adjuvant Be Used With Foliar Fertilizers?

Silicone-based agricultural adjuvants are also used with foliar-applied nutrient products and other compatible agricultural inputs. N-Spreader should only be combined with a foliar fertilizer when the fertilizer label or technical recommendation permits the use of an adjuvant. Before preparing a full tank mix, check compatibility instructions for the products being combined.

How to Use N-Spreader

General Mixing & Application Approach

N-Spreader is used as an agricultural spray adjuvant. A practical tank-mixing sequence should always follow the labels of the products being combined.

  1. Add the required quantity of clean water to the spray tank.
  2. Follow the companion product’s label instructions for preparing the spray mixture.
  3. Add N-Spreader at the recommended rate.
  4. Mix thoroughly.
  5. Apply the prepared spray uniformly to the intended crop.

The exact mixing order can vary depending on the formulation of the companion product. Always follow the product labels and compatibility recommendations before tank mixing.

N-Spreader Dosage

Supplied Product Label Dosage:

5 ml per 15 litres of water

(Approximately 0.33 ml per litre of water)

Use the recommended quantity according to the current product label and the requirements of the companion agricultural product.

Do not increase the dose of the pesticide, fungicide, herbicide or fertilizer because an adjuvant is being used.

Why Is Spray Coverage Important?

The effectiveness of a spray application depends partly on how well the spray solution reaches and wets the intended plant surface.

Leaves can have waxy, hairy or otherwise difficult-to-wet surfaces. When spray droplets remain beaded or run off quickly, the distribution of the spray solution may be uneven.

Organosilicone surfactants are known for their strong wetting and spreading properties and can reduce the surface tension of aqueous spray solutions. N-Spreader is designed to support this part of the spray-application process.

Spray Adjuvant vs Pesticide: What's the Difference?

A pesticide, fungicide or herbicide is the primary agricultural product used for a specific crop-protection purpose.

An adjuvant is an additional product used to modify or support the physical or application characteristics of a spray mixture.

N-Spreader belongs to the second category. It is designed to support:

Wetting → Spreading → Coverage → Application efficiency

It does not replace the active agricultural product being applied.

When Can an Agricultural Spray Adjuvant Be Useful?

An agricultural spray adjuvant may be useful when the companion product’s label recommends or permits its use and when improved wetting or spreading is relevant to the application.

Examples can include:

  • Difficult-to-wet leaf surfaces
  • Foliar spray applications
  • Water-soluble crop-protection products
  • Compatible foliar nutrient applications
  • Situations where uniform spray coverage is important

Important: More adjuvant is not necessarily better. Using an incorrect type or excessive amount of surfactant can increase the risk of plant injury. Agricultural extension guidance specifically recommends checking the pesticide label when selecting and using surfactants.

Check Compatibility Before Tank Mixing

N-Spreader is intended to be used with compatible agricultural spray products. Before preparing a large tank mixture:

  • Check the companion product label.
  • Check whether an adjuvant is recommended.
  • Follow the prescribed adjuvant rate.
  • Conduct a small compatibility test when appropriate.
  • Follow crop-specific safety directions.
  • Do not exceed the recommended dose.

Do not assume that every pesticide, fungicide, herbicide, fertilizer or plant growth regulator can automatically be mixed with every adjuvant. Inappropriate surfactant use can increase the risk of crop injury.

Where Can N-Spreader Fit Into a Crop Spray Program?

N-Spreader can be considered when an agricultural spray program requires a compatible wetting or spreading adjuvant. It may be used alongside compatible insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, plant growth regulators, and water-soluble agricultural inputs. The primary product should always determine the crop, target, dose and application schedule. N-Spreader’s role is to support the physical performance of the spray solution, not to replace the active agricultural input.
