Roundup Proactive and Gallup Home and Garden

Hello could anyone tell me why (according to their product labels) Roundup Proactive is aquatic area safe and can be used in orchard areas while Gallup home and garden is not ?  

 

I'm looking at the the issue of 'some' spraying near established trees and shrubs for a parish council and I have bought the Gallup pesticide because they both contain 360g/l

I'm not looking to spray near water.

The Gallup product label only says,

'contains 360g/l Glyphosate in a soluble concentrate'
whereas the Roundup Proactive goes further around that detail adding..

'present as 441g/l (35%w/w) of the potassium salt of glyphosate'

I've recently got my PA1/ PA6 and just wondering if Gallup can be used in the same areas of use.

Thanks

Strictly speaking, you can only use the product in the areas mentioned on the product specific label, unless there are any off label approvals.

Roundup proactive is one of the few glyphosate products that has been approved for use on waterways, IIRC there is now a separate PA module for waterway use.

There are no safe glyphosate products that are safe to use near waterways, especially a product produced by Monsanto. Currupt as f**k. I wouldn't use it near anything that will be used for human consumption. Just avoid using weedkiller.
