Arrow 80WP Herbicide | 1kg

Arrow 80WP Herbicide | 1kg is a selective, pre-emergence herbicide formulated to control a broad spectrum of grassy and broadleaf weeds in various crops. With 80% Diuron (active ingredient) in wettable powder (WP) form, it works by inhibiting photosynthesis in weed seedlings, effectively preventing weed growth before or shortly after germination.

Arrow 80WP is ideal for use in plantations, cereals, legumes, and non-crop areas.

2. Mode of Action: Selective, systemic pre-emergence herbicide
3. Formulation: Wettable powder for easy mixing with water
4. Package Size: 1kg
5. Application: Applied to soil before weed emergence or shortly after sowing
6. Residual Control: Offers long-lasting weed suppression
7. Target Weeds: Annual grasses and broadleaf weeds

Application Guidelines for Arrow 80WP Herbicide:

1. Dilution:

   • Pre-Emergent: 500g–1kg per hectare, mixed with 200–400L water.

   • Post-Emergent: 300–500g per hectare, depending on weed stage.

   • Dissolve in water according to label instructions (typically 1–2 kg per hectare).

2. Timing:

   • Apply pre-planting, pre-emergent, or early post-emergent (before weeds exceed 5cm).

3. Method:

   • Use knapsack, boom, or tractor-mounted sprayers for even coverage.

   • Avoid spraying during high winds or extreme heat.

   • Avoid application just before heavy rainfall to prevent leaching.
4. Equipment: Apply using a knapsack or boom sprayer with proper nozzle calibration.
5. Application Rate: Usually 1–2 kg/ha (adjust per crop type and weed pressure – always follow label instructions).
6. Soil Moisture: Works best in moist soil for effective absorption and residual activity.

Applications of Arrow 80WP Herbicide:

1. Pre-Emergence Weed Control:

   • Apply before weed seeds germinate to prevent early weed competition.

   • Especially effective when applied right after planting but before crop emergence.

2. Selective Weed Management in Crops:

   • Suitable for maize, cassava, groundnut, soybean, yam, and oil palm.

   • Controls unwanted grasses and broadleaf weeds without harming the target crop (when used as directed).

3. Soil-Active Herbicide:

   • Binds to the soil and inhibits weed seedling growth by disrupting photosynthesis.

   • Effective in fields with moderate to heavy weed infestation.

4. Fallow Land Management:

   • Helps clear fallow land before the planting season.

   • Reduces the need for manual or mechanical weeding.

5. Plantation Use:

   • Can be used in perennial crop plantations such as oil palm, cocoa, citrus, and sugarcane to manage undergrowth.

Safety & Precautions

1. Protective Gear: Wear gloves, goggles, masks, and long sleeves to avoid inhalation or skin contact.
2. Environmental Care: Do not apply near water bodies, aquatic plants, or sensitive crops.
3. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from food, feed, and children.
