JU Atrazine is a selective systemic herbicide containing Atrazine 50% WP, which is used to target broadleaf and grassy weeds in maize and sugarcane crops. This herbicide is quickly absorbed through the plants and moves through foliage with translaminar action. Atrazine 50% WP herbicide blocks the photosynthesis process and stops further weed development. JU Atrazine herbicide can also be used as a pre-emergence and post-emergence application, making it flexible for farmers.
