Overview of Metribuzin

Metribuzin is a selective herbicide widely used in agriculture to control a variety of broadleaf weeds and some grasses in crops such as potato, soybean, sugarcane, and tomato. It works by inhibiting photosynthesis in target plants, effectively preventing weed growth while leaving crops unharmed. Its residual activity ensures longer protection against early and late-emerging weeds.

Metribuzin is often used alongside other herbicides such as Geraniol, Tricyclazole, Atrazine, Metolachlor, and 2,4-D to enhance weed control efficacy and support integrated pest management strategies.
