The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recently granted label registration to LebanonTurf's Fertilizer with Acelepryn insecticide plus Barricade herbicide. The new combination product is formulated to provide season-long control of grubs and crabgrass with one fertilizer application.
This unique combination of control products are featured in the Country Club and ProScape brands with the load level combination of .067% Acelepryn plus .67% Barricade, and are labeled for use on both cool-season and warm-season grasses.
"Combining Acelepryn and Barricade together into one product was the next logical step in the growing market of time and labor-saving products that accomplish multiple tasks with one application," said Christopher S. Gray, Sr., director of marketing in a news release. "These products are a huge time-saver for golf course superintendents and lawn care professionals because they are incredibly effective, highly versatile and easily fit into current, established maintenance programs."
Both Country Club's Acelepryn plus Barricade mini-sized products and ProScape Aceleperyn plus Barricade standard-sized products will feature LebanonTurf's proprietary nutrient technologies of MESA-XP, a homogeneous granule that contains methylene urea, ammonium sulfate and sulfate of potash, and U-FORM, urea-formaldehyde nitrogen that feeds the turf for up to 26 weeks.
"We feel that the high caliber of these unique, value-added products demands using the best, most innovative, nutrient components available in the market to deliver the highest quality of fertilizer along with the benefits of season-long insect and weed control," Gray said.
A division of privately held Lebanon Seaboard, LebanonTurf is a provider of high-performance plant-nutrition products for the golf and landscape industries. The company offers both microbiological components and advanced controlled-release fertilizers.
