Atria is a selective herbicide containing Atrazine 50% WP as the active ingredient. It is primarily used for pre-emergence and post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in maize (corn) and sugarcane crops. Atria is formulated as a wettable powder (WP) and is applied as a foliar spray.

Mode of Action:

Atrazine, the active ingredient in Atria, belongs to the triazine class of herbicides. It inhibits photosynthesis in susceptible plants by blocking electron transport in photosystem II, disrupting the plant's ability to produce energy and ultimately leading to its death.

Application:

Atria can be applied as a pre-emergence or post-emergence herbicide. For pre-emergence control, it is applied to the soil before the weeds emerge, preventing their germination and establishment. For post-emergence control, it is applied to actively growing weeds, targeting young and actively growing broadleaf weeds.

Precautions:

While Atria is considered relatively safe when used according to label directions, it is essential to take precautions during handling and application.

• Wear protective clothing, including gloves, goggles, and a mask, when handling or applying Atria.

• Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing.

• Do not eat, drink, or smoke while handling or applying Atria.

• Wash hands thoroughly after handling or applying Atria.

• Store Atria in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from food, feed, and children's reach.

• Dispose of empty containers safely and responsibly.

• Atria is moderately toxic to fish and aquatic organisms. Avoid contamination of water bodies.
