ORCO Perm AG Dyes
Yes, these dyes can be blended, but then you will lose EPA Approval as the EPA Ingredient Listing Database is based on the actual trade name of the dye from Organic Dyes and Pigments LLC
Typically, colors are added so that when a pesticide/fertilizer is delivered through aerial spraying, you can see where those chemicals actually go, and make sue there is no over-spray on additional fields.
Frequently, manufacturers (or farmers) will add color in to differentiate types of pesticides or fertilizers, or to differentiate various types of seed coatings. Colorants are also added for overall branding for specific manufacturers.
