Description
Foost Herbicide (Atrazine 50% WP) is a selective systemic herbicide developed for controlling both pre-emergent and post-emergent weeds in corn and sugarcane. Its formulation provides effective weed management while supporting healthier crop growth.
Foost works through systemic action by interfering with photosynthesis and enzyme function in weeds, leading to their death. The herbicide is absorbed through both roots and leaves, providing thorough weed control. It is also approved for use in non-crop areas such as roadsides and ditches.
