Many pesticides require the addition of an adjuvant, and some do not. When applying fungicides, insecticides or herbicides without a recommended adjuvant, 30 percent to 50 percent reduction in pest control can be expected.

This bulletin is intended to describe how adjuvants differ and what adjuvants are best to use.
