Overview
About this product
Booster is a surfactant with 980 g/L nonylphenol propyl ether. It lowers the surface tension of the working solution, so droplets roll off the leaves less, stay on them and spread, and the coverage area increases.
According to the manufacturer, the number of fine droplets and their drift by wind are also reduced. Booster is used with the herbicides Tryvium, Ramzes, Alfa-Mais, Alfa-Star, Tryatlon, Tryatlon Praim, Khammer and Mistard: 50 ml per 100 l of water at a spray volume of 200–300 l/ha, at a lower volume at least 100 ml/ha, in drought and heat up to 150 ml/ha.

Questions & answers
What farmers ask most
- In Ukraine a crop-protection product may be sold only with a state registration. The certificate and the expiry date recorded for this product are in the Specifications table above. After a registration ends, the remaining stock may be sold for two more years, but not past its shelf life; a cancelled registration has no such period. ADAM accepts no new vendor offer when the registration is missing, cancelled or past that period.
Product specifications are compiled from publicly available manufacturer sources and are provided for guidance only — confirm all details with the vendor before purchase.
