Description Metribuzin 70% WP is a selective herbicide used mainly in crops like potato, tomato, soybean, sugarcane and maize for controlling broadleaf weeds and some grassy weeds. The wettable powder formulation allows uniform suspension in water and easy application. It provides pre-emergence and early post-emergence weed control, helping the crop to establish well and achieve higher yield. Mode of Action Metribuzin acts by inhibiting photosystem II in the chloroplast of weed plants. This stops electron transport and energy production, leading to chlorosis and eventual death of weeds. The herbicide is absorbed by roots and leaves and translocated to growing points providing complete control of susceptible weeds. Benefits Effective control of broadleaf and some grassy weeds Provide pre-emergence and early post-emergence action Improve crop establishment by reducing weed competition Wettable powder formulation ensures easy mixing and application Support better growth and higher yield of crop
