Farmers simply can’t meet the increasing demand for Corn without controlling the grass and broadleaf weeds that compete with crops for moisture, sunlight and nutrients. Research has proven the positive effect Atrazine has on farm production:

★In combined data from 236 university Corn field trials from 1986-2005, Atrazine treatments showed an average of 5.7 bushels more per acre than alternative Herbicide treatments.

★Similar research in sorghum trials in Kansas and Nebraska from 1986-1995 showed an 11.3 bushel/acre advantage in that crop.
★Production experts estimate yield advantage in sugar cane ranges from 12 to 50 percent.

Among dozens of Herbicides evaluated by scientists, Atrazine is the only product which provides all of the following key agronomic features:
★Effective, broad spectrum weed control leads to high crop yields.
★Low treatment cost.
★Application flexibility: Atrazine can be applied prior to, during or after planting the crop, or after crop emergence, so it fits a wide variety of cropping systems.
★Fits soil-saving conservation tillage systems.
★Low risk of crop injury.
★Important in management of weed resistance.
★Low potential for drift.
