SAS for Foliar Applications

Use 1 oz. for 60 to 100 ounces of water. How does it work? It is like a mini shotgun that penetrates the waxy surface of the plant so the spray solution can get in. The plant will heal those breaches stronger than before. In that way, SAS can actually promote growth and yields.

SAS quickly takes your fertilizer or herbicide solution into the plant, improving absorption. It saves money by allowing you to cut back on how much fertilizer you apply. Spray less and get the same results. AG-USA uses SAS in manufacturing MycorrPlus-F, where we cut back application rate by 1/3. It makes spray solutions rain fast in minutes.

SAS as an Insecticide

• It dries out worms on the leaf along with other soft-bodied insects. It also dries out beneficial soft-bodied insects on contact (honeybees) and their eggs (ladybug eggs, etc.) so be careful. Add 2 to 4 ounces per gallon.
• It dries out fungus on the leaf, killing the fungus. Unlike insecticides, SAS doesn't harm anything in the soil.

SAS for Oil Fields

SAS cleans up oil spills.

SAS for oil wells — These can see lower production over time. The surface where the oil comes into the well tends to slowly become sealed off with paraffins (wax). Pour 50 gallons into an oil well to break down the paraffin lining. In some cases, this has doubled well production.
