About Paraquate Dichloride-24% SL

Paraquat Dichloride 24% SL is a widely used, non-selective, fast-acting contact herbicide containing 24% of the active ingredient paraquat dichloride. It is primarily used to control a broad spectrum of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds in various agricultural settings, including plantations, orchards, and field crops. It works by disrupting photosynthesis, causing rapid desiccation and death of green foliage within a few hours of application.

Fast-Acting Non-Selective Control: Rapidly kills green plant tissues on contact, producing visible weed-killing results within a few hours to 4 days.
Ideal for No-Till Farming: As a contact herbicide, it destroys only the green foliage (foliar parts), leaving roots intact and protecting soil structure while reducing soil erosion.
Rainfast Property: Gains non-washing properties within minutes of application, ensuring effectiveness even in unpredictable weather.
Inactivated in Soil: Being cationic, it is rapidly adsorbed and inactivated upon contact with soil, which prevents it from harming upcoming crops (no residual soil activity).
Versatile Application: Used as a pre-plant spray for weed removal before planting, as a post-emergence directed application to avoid damaging main crops, and as a harvest aid (desiccant) in crops like cotton to facilitate harvesting.
Broad-Spectrum Weed Management: Effective against a wide array of annual grasses, broadleaved weeds, and even the tips of perennial weeds.

Common Crops and Uses:
Paraquat 24% SL is used in a wide range of crops including tea, coffee, rubber, potato, cotton, grapes, maize, rice, and orchards (citrus, banana). It is also employed for weed management along industrial sites, roadsides, and in aquatic environments.
