Amitrole
Description :
Overview of Amitrole
Amitrole is a non-selective systemic herbicide widely used for controlling perennial and annual weeds, grasses, and woody plants. Chemically, it belongs to the triazole group and works by inhibiting chlorophyll formation, which gradually stops photosynthesis and leads to complete plant death. Unlike contact herbicides, Amitrole is absorbed through foliage and translocated throughout the plant system, including roots.
In agricultural and industrial vegetation control, Amitrole is valued for its deep root action and long-lasting weed suppression. It is commonly applied in non-crop areas, such as railways, highways, industrial sites, orchards (directed spray), irrigation channels, and plantation crops, where complete vegetation control is required.
Amitrole is often formulated or used alongside other herbicides such as Atrazine, Diuron, Paraquat Dichloride, Glyphosate, and 2,4-D to enhance weed control efficiency and broaden the control spectrum.
ChemicalBull supplies technical-grade Amitrole suitable for agrochemical formulation and industrial weed management applications, ensuring consistent purity, performance reliability, and regulatory-aligned documentation.
You may also like Glyphosate, Paraquat Dichloride, Diuron, Atrazine, and 2,4-D Amine for comprehensive vegetation and weed control programs.
