What is APSA-80?
APSA-80, a product of Amway is an all purpose spray
adjuvant which on mixing with insecticides, fungicides,
herbicides and defoliators increases their efficacy. As a
result of that, the crops, fruits and vegetable are better
protected from diseases, pests and unwanted herbs,
resulting in more productive yield. This adjuvant has 80%
of active ingredients and this can be mixed in any solution
to improve its performance many times
Note : APSA-80 is neither an insecticide nor a fertiliser. It
is an adjuvant that enhances the performances of
insecticides and fertilisers and also helps water or solution
to penetrate deeper.
How does APSA-80 work?
APSA - 80 contains special elements - ' Non Ironic
Surfactants' that break down the surface tension of the
water. These surfactants work on the surface of the water
droplet to reduce its tendency to bead up by pulling the
water and the wax on the leaf surface together, reducing
the water's surface tension and causing the water droplet
to spread out. When the water used in pesticide sprays
spreads out more evenly, the result is much better
pesticide coverage. Adding APSA-80 helps insecticides,
defoliators and foliar fertilisers to penetrate the surface of
the leaf faster and more evenly.
How to Use APSA-80?
With Insecticides, Fungicides, Foliar Fertilisers and
Defoliators:
Prepare a solution if insecticides / fungicides / foliar
fertilisers / defoliators and water. Follow the mixing
instructions recommended by the pesticide manufacturer.
Mix 5ml of APSA-80 ( 1 / 4th capful) per 15litres of
pestcide or foliar fetiliser solution.
Spray normally on the crop
With Post - Emergent Herbicides :
Make a solution of the post-emergent hherbicide to be
used with water in the spray tank. Follow the mixing
instructions recommended by the herbicide manufacturer.
Mix 20ml of APSA - 80 (1 capful) per 15 litres of post
emergent berbicide solution
Spray normally on the crop.
For use as an Irrigation Aid
Mix 160ml of APSA - 80 (8 capful) in atleast 80 litres per
acre. The dosage of APSA-80 will remain 160ml per acre of
land even if the wate required is more than 80 litres to
cover an acre of land.
About 12 hours before irrigating, spray this mixture of
APSA - 80 and water directly on the entire land area which
is to be irrigated. Spray directly on the soil.
Let the water flow into the land and see how it penetrates
the soil better and also spreads better.
The above mentioned spray of APSA - 80 will remain
effective for about 4 weeks. Repeat the above steps for
irrigation after a month.
Advantages of APSA - 80
1. Offers farmers an excellent opportunity to increase their
crop yields.
2. Spreader - provides more uniform spray deposit on
plants; improves coverage of insecticide, herbicide,
fungicide and foliar fertiliser sprays.
3. Activator - through wetting action helps improve
performance of post-emergent herbicides, insecticides, and
fungicides.
4. For use on growing and harvested crops.
5. Helps in dispersing powders and oil-base liquids.

fungicides.
4. For use on growing and harvested crops.
5. Helps in dispersing powders and oil-base liquids.
6. The International and Indian test results on variety of
crops prove the effectiveness of APSA-80 for improving
pesticide coverage and performance.
7. Increases water penetration - gets more water into the
soil. Also aids irrigation by reducing run-off; saves water.
8. Aids irrigation by increasing rate at which water soaks
into soil; promotes more efficient water usage.
9. Helps keep spray equipment clean and prevents clogged
nozzles-reduces down time.
10. Non-corrosive to equipment.
11. Biodegradable.
12. According to Indian researches, APSA-80 fetches a
return of 15 to 213 times of the amount spent on it
