There is no set water rate.
For Soil & Seed or Digest-it which are applied to soil you require enough water to ensure that the application breaks the soil crust. Water rates can be as low as 80L/ha (i.e. for helicopter application) and up to 2000L/ha (i.e. if necessary in extremely dry conditions.) Application via irrigation, during periods of heavy dew, preceding or during rainfall events are useful strategies.
For foliar applications of Roots & Shoots or Flower & Fruit the operator needs to use an appropriate water rate to achieve full coverage.
