Barrier (Metribuzin 70% WP) is a selective, systemic, and contact herbicide of the Triazinone group, which inhibits photosynthesis at Photosystem II. It controls weeds in sugarcane, potato, tomato, soybean, and wheat. It acts through roots and leaves, allowing for both pre- and post-emergence applications. It controls both narrow and broadleaf weeds.
Features & Benefits
It effectively controls Phalaris minor, which has developed resistance to most of the herbicides in addition to many other grasses and broad leaf weeds.
It is economical because of its broad spectrum activity and low dose.
No residual effect on succeeding crops.
Mode of Action
Selective systemic herbicide, absorbed predominantly by the roots, but also by the leaves, with translocation in the xylem. It inhibits photosynthesis and acts on both grasses and broadleaf weeds.
