Overview of Diuron
Diuron is a substituted urea herbicide widely used for the control of annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf weeds. It acts by inhibiting photosynthesis in susceptible plants, resulting in gradual but effective weed control. Diuron is mainly applied as a pre-emergence and early post-emergence herbicide in agricultural and non-crop areas.
In agricultural applications, Diuron is valued for its long residual activity, cost efficiency, and broad-spectrum weed control. It is commonly used in crops such as cotton, sugarcane, citrus, and coffee, as well as in industrial and non-crop zones for vegetation management.
ChemicalBull supplies high-purity Diuron suitable for professional agricultural and industrial use, ensuring consistent performance, regulatory compliance, and safe handling.
You may also like Amitrole, Pretilachlor, Pyriproxyfen, Acephate, and Benzoylurea for a complete crop and weed management solution.
