Atrazin (Atrazine 50% WP) is a powerful herbicide from the triazine chemical group. It is absorbed primarily through the roots and transported to the leaves, where it inhibits photosynthesis in targeted weeds. Its broad-spectrum action and residual control make it ideal for use in crops such as maize and sugarcane, protecting them from early weed competition. It is effective against a wide range of weeds and is known for its safety when used as directed on recommended crops.

Key Benefits

• Broad-Spectrum Action: Effectively controls both broadleaf and grassy weeds.

• Residual Effect: Long-lasting action reduces the need for frequent reapplication.

• Pre- and Post-Emergence Use: Offers flexibility depending on weed growth stage.

• Improves Crop Yield: By minimizing weed competition, it allows better crop development.

• Cost-Effective: Economical weed management for large farms.

Key Features

• Active Ingredient: Atrazine 50% Wettable Powder

• Mode of Action: Inhibits photosynthesis (Photosystem II inhibitor)

• Formulation Type: WP (Wettable Powder)

• Application Flexibility: Suitable for early post and pre-emergence spraying

• Compatibility: Can be tank-mixed with other herbicides (check label guidance)

How to Use

1. Dosage:

   • Maize: 400–800 gm per acre

   • Sugarcane: 400 gm – 1.6 kg per acre

2. Method:
