Water Conditioner

Volta-Ego

Maximise glyphosate performance

Volta‑Ego is a high‑performance water conditioner designed to maximise glyphosate efficacy, particularly in hard or high‑pH water conditions. By sequestering metallic ions such as calcium and magnesium, Volta‑Ego prevents glyphosate chelation, ensuring the applied dose remains fully available and effective. Its buffering action reduces spray solution pH, protecting glyphosate from alkaline hydrolysis and maintaining stability in the tank. Volta‑Ego also improves dose delivery and spray coverage, helping to minimise survivors and reduce the risk of weed re‑growth. Added benefits include improved tank‑filling efficiency through anti‑foam properties and valuable drift reduction when used at higher rates. Suitable for use with all glyphosate formulations, Volta‑Ego supports robust weed control, timely drilling, and effective resistance management.

Key situations in which to use Volta-Ego

  • Effective removal of cover crops
  • Managing of overwintered weeds ahead of spring drilling
  • Effective in preparation of a stale seedbed prior to drilling
  • To prevent drift, thereby maximising herbicide dose and coverage on the target
  • With glyphosate formulations that may be prone to foaming
  • For fast entry into the next crop

Proven to maximise glyphosate performance

Key benefits

Prevents glyphosate breakdown in the spray tank with high pH water - pH5 is ideal for glyphosate

Prevents hard water cations "locking up" glyphosate which prevents the absorption into target leaves/crops/stubbles

Prevents foaming at filling

Protects off-targets, ensures full dose reaches the target and maximises leaf coverage with glyphosate at application

Value in use

Maximises the availability of glyphosate for effective weed, crop and stubble control

Maximises glyphosate absorption into target weeds/crops/stubbles increasing the reliability and numbers controlled

Avoids unnecessary downtime removing foam or cleaning up overspills, improving efficiency at filling

Maximises the number of plants coming into contact with glyphosate at application, maximising control

How to use Volta-Ego

  • Volta-Ego is compatible with all formulations of glyphosate
  • Add Volta-Ego first to the spray tank after water

Application rate per hectare

0.125% - 0.25% of the final spray volume
