Paraquat 20%SL is a widely used fast-acting herbicide primarily known for its rapid efficacy, broad weed control range, and flexible application scenarios. The herbicide only affects the green stems and leaves of weeds, loses effectiveness quickly upon contact with soil, and leaves no residual impact on land, making it ideal for subsequent planting and root growth. It is commonly employed in orchards, forests, non-agricultural vacant lands, and pre-planting weed clearance.
1.Product Working Principle
Relying on foliar contact to exert weed control effect,Paraquat is evenly sprayed on the leaves of weeds, which can quickly interfere with the normal growth and metabolism of weeds, making them unable to absorb nutrients and light normally, resulting in yellowing, dehydration, withering and even the whole plant dying in a short period of time.
>Paraquat only acts on the spraying location and will not spread within the plant body, nor will it deeply damage the crop roots underground. At the same time, the medicinal solution will immediately become ineffective after landing and will not remain in the soil, making it safer to use. In an environment with sufficient sunlight, weed removal speed and overall effectiveness are better.
2.Scope of Application and Use Cases
Paraquat is an inactivated weed control product, which can remove all green plants. Therefore, it is prohibited to spray directly on the leaves of crops, vegetables and fruits in various growth periods, and it is suitable for directional spray weeding and non cultivated land weeding scenarios.
The main applicable scenarios include: inter row weeding in various fruit tree parks, weed cleaning in nursery forests, removal of old grass before sowing in farmland, weed control in non-agricultural areas such as embankments, ditches, road green belts, factory open spaces, and wastelands.
3.Weed control
Paraquat has a wide weed control coverage and can effectively remove most common weeds in fields and outdoors, meeting the needs of most conventional weed control.
Mainly able to prevent and control common grasses in the Poaceae family, such as dogweed, horseweed, cowweed, and barnyard grass; Broad leaved weeds such as amaranth, purslane, small flying Peng, Cang’er, and Gesneri; At the same time, it can quickly wither the aboveground parts of perennial weeds such as dandelion, plantain, reed, and knotweed, effectively controlling the spread and growth of weeds.
4.Features
Fast Onset:Quickly causes weed yellowing and withering, shortening the weed control cycle.
Broad Weed Control :Controls a wide range of common weeds with one product.
No Soil Residue:Becomes inactive in the soil without affecting subsequent planting.
Leaf-Directed Action:Targets weed foliage without moving into the roots, making it suitable for orchards and forests.
Stable applicability: It delivers stable performance under normal climatic conditions and across various soil types.
5.Applicable Timing and Application Conditions
Apply the pesticide when weeds are actively growing to achieve better overall weed control. Spray on sunny, windless days after the dew has dried to help the pesticide spread evenly and work faster. Avoid rainfall shortly after application to allow the pesticide to deliver its full effect. Rainy and low-temperature conditions may slow the action of the pesticide, but they generally do not affect the final weed control results.
6.Precautions for Use
During pesticide application, avoid spraying the green leaves of crops and desirable plants to prevent accidental damage from pesticide drift. Tall and mature weeds often show stronger resistance, so spray the leaves thoroughly to improve pesticide penetration and control. For stubborn weeds with deep roots, one application may only remove the aboveground parts. If the weeds regrow, apply a follow-up spray to improve overall weed control.
7.Storage and Safety Instructions
Store the product in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, away from children, livestock, food, and feed. During pesticide application, wear appropriate protective equipment and avoid direct contact with the pesticide solution. After application, clean your hands, clothing, and application equipment promptly. Store the product and equipment properly and follow standardized application procedures to ensure safe operation.
