Just doing a bit of research - read on the bracken control site

 

"Asulam concrentrations in hand-held equipment

 

Note that under the asulam label issued with recent Emergency Authorisations the concentration of Asulam for use in hand-held euipment has been restricted to 1 part of Asulam to 100 parts of water. This is different to the uses that had developed prior to the change of status of Asulam at the end of 2012. "

 

Does anyone know what concentration people used prior to that and why has it been reduced?

I could be wrong, but I always thought it was 100 to 1 mix before 2012, for spot spraying.
