Compatibility:

Trace elements;
Zinc sulphate and copper sulphate are antagonistic with Dicamba amine and MPA amine. This is caused by ionic reactions and results in a significant loss of efficacy. Manganese sulphate and calcium carbonate (lime) have lesser effects.

Water Quality:

Hard water - There may be a slight loss of activity due to ionic bonding in very hard water.
Colloids - Some loss of activity as the amount of clay in the water increases. If it is difficult to see a coin on the bottom of a 10 litre bucket full of water then the water should be cleared or an alternate source found.
pH -Acidic water is usually OK. Highly alkaline water may cause loss of efficacy.
