Description

Atrazine CAS NO 1912-24-9 is a selective systemic herbicide belonging to the triazine class, widely recognized for its pre- and post-emergent activity against broadleaf and grassy weeds. Its primary value lies in providing cost-effective, long-lasting residual control in major row crops, significantly enhancing agricultural productivity and yield. This product is essential for professional agricultural operations, particularly in the cultivation of corn, sorghum, and sugarcane, as well as for non-crop industrial vegetation management.

Application

• Selective Weed Control in Corn, Sorghum, and Sugarcane: Applied pre-plant, pre-emergence, or early post-emergence to manage a broad spectrum of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds.
• Non-Crop Area Management: Used for total vegetation control on industrial sites, railways, roadsides, and utility rights-of-way.
• Pineapple and Citrus Production: Employed in certain regions for weed suppression in these specific fruit plantations.
• Turf Management (Restricted Use): Historically used on certain turfgrasses like centipedegrass and St. Augustinegrass, subject to strict local regulations.
• Chemical Intermediate: Serves as a key starting material or intermediate in the synthesis of other specialized agrochemical compounds.
• Research & Development: Utilized in agricultural research laboratories for studies on herbicide efficacy, environmental fate, and resistance management.
