How Atrazine 80 WP Works

Atrazine is absorbed primarily through the roots and foliage of susceptible plants. It interferes with photosynthetic activity, preventing susceptible weeds from producing the energy required for normal growth.

Because atrazine is a selective herbicide, its use depends on the crop and registered application. It should not be applied indiscriminately to crops that are sensitive to atrazine.

Target Weeds

Atrazine 80 WP is used against susceptible:

Grasses

• Annual grass weeds

Broadleaf Weeds

• Susceptible annual broadleaf weeds

The exact weeds and crops approved for a particular Atrazine 80 WP product should always be checked against its current registered label.

Recommended Use

Apply Atrazine 80 WP only to crops and situations indicated on the registered product label.

Application timing may be pre-emergence or post-emergence, depending on the approved crop and product directions.

For example, a current FPA listing for Radisson Atrazine 80 WP identifies use in corn and sorghum against broadleaf weeds and annual grasses.
