Description

Sun Atrazine 500 SC is a selective, systemic herbicide formulated as a suspension concentrate containing 500 g/L of atrazine. It is specially designed for pre-emergence and early post-emergence control of a wide range of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds, primarily in maize (corn), sorghum, and sugarcane cultivation.

Atrazine acts by inhibiting photosynthesis in susceptible plants, leading to effective and long-lasting weed suppression. When applied before weed germination or at early growth stages, it reduces weed competition, allowing crops to establish more vigorously and achieve higher yields.

Target Weeds:

• Annual grasses

• Broadleaf weeds

Application Crops:

• Maize (corn)

• Sorghum

• Sugarcane

Key Features and Benefits:

• Selective action: Safe for targeted crops when used as directed.

• Pre- and post-emergence control: Effective both before and shortly after weed emergence.

• Long residual activity: Sustains weed control during critical early crop growth stages.

• Easy application: Suspension concentrate (SC) formulation for uniform mixing and smooth spraying.

• Enhanced crop yield: By reducing early weed competition.

Application Rate:

• 2–3 liters per hectare, depending on soil type, weed pressure, and environmental conditions.

• Use sufficient water volume (200–400 L/ha) to ensure thorough and even coverage.

Usage Instructions:

• Apply on moist soil for best performance.

• Ensure even spray coverage using a properly calibrated sprayer.

• Avoid spraying if heavy rainfall is expected immediately after application to prevent product runoff.

• Shake container well before use.

Precautions:

• Do not apply near water sources or sensitive crops.

• Avoid spray drift onto non-target plants.

• Use personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, goggles, and masks during handling and application.

• Follow label instructions strictly to ensure safe and effective use.

Storage:

• Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from foodstuffs, feed, and seeds.

• Keep container tightly closed and out of reach of children and animals.
