EBS Asar Herbicide - Atrazine 50% WP

EBS ASAR is a selective systemic herbicide containing Atrazine 50% WP. It controls a wide range of annual grassy and broadleaf weeds by blocking photosynthesis in the weed plant — starving it from within until it dies completely. It can be applied both before weeds emerge from the soil and in the early stages after emergence, giving farmers flexible timing for application. It is safe for Maize and Sugarcane crops when used at recommended doses and is a cost-effective solution for clean and weed-free fields.

Key Features & Benefits Of EBS ASAR

• Systemic Action: EBS Asar is absorbed through the foliage of weeds and translocated upward through the plant, killing weeds from their roots.

• Long Residual: It provides extended weed control after a single application — protects the crop from fresh weed emergence for several weeks.

• Broad Spectrum: Atrazine 50% WP controls both annual grassy weeds and broadleaf weeds in a single spray.

• Resistance Breaker: Effective against weeds that have developed resistance to other herbicide groups.

• Cost-Effective: Atrazine 50% WP controls a wide range of weeds at a low cost per acre compared to multiple herbicide applications.

Atrazine 50% WP Dosage — Crop Wise Recommended Dose

Mix EBS ASAR in 200 litres of water per acre for foliar spray. Apply Atrazine 50% WP as a pre-emergence spray within 0 to 3 days of sowing or as an early post-emergence spray when weeds are at the 2 to 3 leaf stage.
