Refers to a solid, granular pesticide formulation that disperses quickly in water to form a stable suspension. It’s a dust-free alternative to wettable powders (WP), offering safer handling and better performance in spray applications.

Key Characteristics of WDG:

• Granular format: Easy to measure, store, and transport

• Disperses in water: Forms a fine suspension without dissolving

• Non-dusty: Reduces inhalation risks during mixing

• High active content: Often 50–90% active ingredient

Advantages:

• Safer for users and environment (no solvents or dust)

• Compatible with most spray equipment

• Stable during storage and transport

• Precise dosing and reduced packaging waste

Typical Components:

WDG formulations are widely used in herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, and biologicals, especially when a dry, concentrated format is preferred. They’re ideal for precision agriculture, offering high efficacy with minimal environmental impact.
