What type of formulation requires constant agitation to remain suspended?

Flowables are a type of pesticide formulation that consists of a solid active ingredient suspended in a liquid carrier. This formulation often requires constant agitation to keep the solid particles evenly distributed throughout the liquid. Without proper agitation, the solid particles may settle at the bottom, leading to inconsistencies in application rates and effectiveness. Proper suspension is crucial for ensuring that the intended dosage of active ingredient reaches the target area.

In contrast, liquid formulations typically do not require agitation as they are homogenous mixtures. Granules and dusts are dry formulations that do not have the same issues with sedimentation as flowables, as they are designed to disperse upon application rather than remaining suspended in a liquid.
