Herbicide Spray Dilution Calculator
Work out exactly how much herbicide to add per sprayer tank and for the whole field, from the label dose per acre and your spray volume.
Use a separate, dedicated sprayer for herbicides — traces in a tank later used for other crops cause severe damage. Spray on a calm day.
Always follow the product label — the label is the law. Verify doses, PHI and compatibility with the manufacturer and local regulations before spraying.
Farmers and spray operators use the free Herbicide Spray Dilution Calculator to mix the correct amount per tank — avoiding the under-dosing that wastes a spray and the over-dosing that wastes money, harms the crop and breaches residue limits.
About Herbicide Spray Dilution Calculator
Getting pesticide dilution right is the difference between control and a wasted, possibly harmful spray. Herbicides use a lower spray volume (≈150 L/acre) and coarse droplets to cut drift. This calculator takes the label dose per acre, your spray volume per acre and your tank size, and works out how much herbicide to add to each tank, the total product for the field, the concentration per litre and the number of tank loads. The product label always takes precedence — doses here are typical values to plan with.

Frequently asked questions
How much herbicide do I add per litre of water?+
Herbicides use a lower spray volume (≈150 L/acre) and coarse droplets to cut drift. The exact rate is on your product's label — divide the label dose per acre by your spray volume per acre to get the per-litre concentration, which this tool does for you.
How do I calculate herbicide per sprayer tank?+
Per-tank dose = label dose per acre × tank size ÷ spray volume per acre. For example, 800 ml/acre at 150 L/acre in a 15 L tank is about 80 ml per tank.
Why must I follow the label dose exactly?+
Use a separate, dedicated sprayer for herbicides — traces in a tank later used for other crops cause severe damage. Spray on a calm day. Over-dosing breaches Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) and can be illegal; under-dosing fails to control the pest and breeds resistance. The label is legally binding.
Is this tool free and private?+
Yes — free, no sign-up, and all calculation runs in your browser, so it works offline in the field and your data never leaves the device.
