What is the main difference between Wettable Powders and Water-Dispersible Granules?

Used in right-of-way applications
Contain water soluble pesticide dispersed in oil carrier
Dry, finely ground solids applied as spray
Breaks apart in liquid and is dustless

The correct answer is: Dry, finely ground solids applied as spray

Wettable Powders and Water-Dispersible Granules differ in their physical forms and how they are applied. Wettable powders are dry, finely ground solid particles that are mixed with water before application, while water-dispersible granules are pre-formulated with a water-soluble pesticide that is dispersed in an oil carrier. Option A is incorrect because both Wettable Powders and Water-Dispersible Granules can be used in right-of-way applications. Option B is incorrect because while Water-Dispersible Granules do contain a water-soluble pesticide dispersed in oil, Wettable Powders do not. Option D is incorrect because while Wettable Powders do break apart in liquid, they are not dustless like Water-Dispersible Granules.
