Metrizan

Efficient Weed Control from the Start

"Metrizan" is a systemic herbicide based on metribuzin, designed for farmers who prioritize early-stage weed management. Operating primarily as a soil-applied barrier, it halts the growth of annual broadleaf and grass weeds before they can compromise crop development. Developed by Jiangsu Institute of Ecomones and Jiangsu Agrochem Laboratory, this product is tailored for critical crops like soybeans, tomatoes, and potatoes.

Key Advantages of Metrizan

The primary strength of Metrizan lies in its selectivity. When applied according to the specified rate of 0.5–1.5 kg/ha, it provides effective control without causing phytotoxicity to the target crops. The water-dispersible granule formulation is a significant benefit, ensuring easy mixing, stable suspension in the spray tank, and consistent distribution across the soil surface.

• Systemic Action: The active ingredient is absorbed through roots and emerging sprouts, inhibiting the photosynthesis of weeds.
• Pre-emergence Protection: Acts as an essential barrier, ensuring that crops have an unobstructed start in their growth cycle.
• High Compatibility: Specifically optimized for use in soy, tomato, and potato production.

While highly effective, Metrizan requires precision. The regulation allows for only one application per season, making timing vital. Its efficacy is closely tied to soil moisture levels, which help mobilize the active ingredient. On sandy soils with low organic matter, it is advisable to stick to lower dosages to ensure the safety of the crop. For professional agricultural operations, Metrizan offers a strategic advantage, reducing the need for intensive mechanical weeding and preserving resources during the early season.
