Description

Sun-Atrazine 80WP is a selective herbicide formulated for the pre-emergence and early post-emergence control of a broad spectrum of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. It is primarily used in crops like maize (corn), sorghum, and sugarcane, helping to ensure healthy crop establishment by eliminating weed competition during the early stages of crop growth.

Atrazine acts by inhibiting photosynthesis in susceptible plants, leading to their death. When applied before weed germination or shortly after, it provides long-lasting residual control and reduces the need for repeated weed management operations.

Target Weeds:

• Annual grasses

• Broadleaf weeds

Application Crops:

• Maize (corn)

• Sorghum

• Sugarcane

Application Rate:

• 2–3 kg per hectare depending on soil type and weed pressure.

• Always apply using adequate water volume to ensure thorough coverage.

Key Benefits:

• Selective action: Safe for use on maize, sorghum, and sugarcane when applied correctly.

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

• Long residual control: Reduces early-season weed competition, improving crop yields.

• Convenient formulation: Wettable powder ensures easy mixing and uniform application.

Application Instructions:

• Mix the recommended dosage with clean water and apply using a calibrated sprayer.

• Apply to moist soil for best results.

• Avoid application if heavy rain is expected shortly after spraying to prevent runoff.

Precautions:

• Do not apply near water bodies to prevent contamination.

• Avoid drift onto non-target crops.

• Wear protective clothing and equipment during handling and application.

• Follow all label directions for safe use and handling.

Storage:
Store in a dry, cool place away from foodstuffs, fertilizers, and seeds. Keep container tightly closed and out of reach of children and animals.
