Loveland Metribuzin 75 Herbicide - Metribuzin 75% - 2.5-Gallon (2/Cs)
About this product
Loveland Metribuzin 75 is a selective herbicide containing 75% metribuzin for pre-emergence and post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds and certain grasses. It is a Photosystem II inhibitor in the triazinone chemical family (WSSA Group 5) and contains the same active ingredient as Sencor.
Active Ingredient
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Active ingredient | Metribuzin 75% |
| Chemical family | Triazinone |
| Herbicide group | WSSA Group 5 (Photosystem II inhibitor) |
| Timing | Pre-emergence and post-emergence |
Mode of Action
Metribuzin binds at the D1 protein in Photosystem II, halting photosynthetic electron transport so that treated weeds can no longer convert light into energy and die. It is taken up primarily through the roots from soil-applied treatments, with additional foliar activity in post-emergence use.
Weeds Controlled
Controls a range of broadleaf weeds and certain grasses, including kochia, morningglory, ragweed, and pigweeds.
Crops and Application
Labeled for crops including soybeans, field corn, wheat, potatoes, tomatoes, sugarcane, and dormant alfalfa. Apply at 2.0 to 5.33 ounces per acre depending on crop and soil. Use the lower rate on coarse-textured soils or soils low in organic matter, and the higher rate on fine-textured soils or those high in organic matter. Crop injury can occur on calcareous soils or soils with a pH of 7.5 or higher, and certain soybean varieties are sensitive; consult the label for variety restrictions.
Mixing
Fill the spray tank one-quarter to one-third full with clean water, add the product while recirculating with the agitator running, then fill to the desired volume; add any tank-mix partner last and maintain agitation through application.
Resistance Management
Rotate or tank-mix with herbicides from a different group, and integrate cultural and mechanical control to manage resistance.
Safety and Handling
Wear a long-sleeved shirt, long pants, shoes, socks, gloves, and eye protection. Do not apply when conditions favor drift toward sensitive crops such as cole crops, onions, peas, or strawberries. Clean equipment thoroughly after use, and avoid contamination of water bodies.
