    Product Description

    Simazine is a triazine herbicide.1,2,3 Pre-emergent application of simazine (1 kg/ha) controls annual and perennial monocot and dicot weeds and increases crop yield in sorghum crops.1 It also controls weed emergence in kharif maize crops when applied at a concentration of 2 kg/ha.2 Simazine (200 and 400 mg/kg) induces spleen cell apoptosis and reduces the proliferation of B and T cells in mice.3 Formulations containing simazine have been used in the control of broadleaf weeds and annual grasses in agriculture.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
