What's the right tank-mix loading order?

Mixing order, jar tests, and compatibility basics that keep your tank from turning to pudding. Free from the FieldCommandCenter agronomy team.

The short answer

Most tank-mix disasters trace to three causes: wrong loading order, incompatible products nobody jar-tested, and hard or high-pH water quietly gutting the herbicide before it left the yard.

The fixes cost almost nothing: follow the W-A-L-E-S order, jar-test any mix you haven't run before, condition the water before the chemistry goes in, and hand the loader a written sheet — not a shouted recipe.

  • The W-A-L-E-S loading order, product type by product type
