UltiGraz Pasture Weed & Feed

UltiGraz Pasture Weed & Feed from Corteva Agriscience

UltiGraz Pasture Weed & Feed makes it easy to bring the combined benefits of broadleaf weed control and fertility to grazing and haying acres.

The certified fertilizer retailer impregnates herbicide onto dry fertilizer granules (prills) during the blending process. UltiGraz Pasture Weed & Feed requires a soil-active herbicide to work. Rainfall puts the solution into the soil where weeds take up the herbicide.

UltiGraz Pasture Weed & Feed helps contain costs while enhancing productivity by eliminating an application expense and increasing forage production. Every pound of weeds controlled on pastureland and hayfields increases seasonal forage production by 1 to 1.5 pounds of desirable grass and improves utilization by grazing animals. Plus, including a herbicide helps ensure the fertilizer goes to growing grass, not weeds.
