Milquat Herbicide (Paraquat Dichloride 24% SL)

Fast-Acting “Burn-Down” Weedicide

When weeds overrun your field borders, irrigation channels, or pre-sowing plots, waiting weeks for a systemic herbicide to work costs you valuable planting time. Milquat Herbicide offers immediate results. Upon contact with green foliage, it disrupts the weed’s photosynthesis and ruptures plant cell membranes, causing rapid desiccation (drying out) and death of both grassy and broadleaf weeds.

Why Farmers Rely on Milquat Herbicide for Weed Management:

• Lightning-Fast Action: Visible wilting and browning of treated weeds occur within just 2 to 3 hours under bright sunlight, with complete collapse in a few days.
• Non-Selective Eradication: Kills a massive spectrum of tough annual and perennial grassy, broadleaf, and aquatic weeds on contact.
• Zero Soil Residual Activity: The chemical binds tightly to soil particles and becomes instantly biologically inactive. This means you can safely sow your main crop immediately after clearing the weeds.
• Excellent Rainfastness: Absorbs into the weed foliage so quickly that it remains highly effective even if it rains shortly after application.
• Versatile Application: Ideal for pre-plant weed clearance, cleaning farm bunds and irrigation channels, or as a directed spray between rows in Coffee, Tea, Rubber, and Orchard plantations.

Agricultural Usage & Application Guidelines

• Recommended Dosage: Use 800 ml to 1 Liter per acre (approximately 5 to 7 ml per liter of water), depending on the density and height of the weed population.
• Preparation: Mix the Soluble Liquid (SL) carefully in a 150-200 liter spray tank filled with clean, mud-free water. (Paraquat binds to mud, so using muddy water will severely reduce its effectiveness).
• Application Method: Apply as a directed foliar spray using a flat fan or flood jet nozzle. Crucial: If spraying between crop rows, you must use a protective spray hood/shield to prevent the chemical from drifting onto your main crop, as it will burn any green tissue it touches.
• Application Timing: Spray when weeds are actively growing and are about 3 to 6 inches tall. Best applied on a sunny day for maximum burn-down effect.
• Critical Safety Precautions: Paraquat is a highly toxic chemical. Ingestion is fatal. Always wear comprehensive Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) including heavy-duty gloves, a face shield/respirator, and full-body clothing while mixing and spraying. Keep completely out of reach of children and livestock.
