Sarvnash Paraquat Dichloride 24% SL Herbicide

Sarvnash Paraquat Dichloride 24% SL is a fast-acting, non-selective contact herbicide widely used for controlling unwanted weeds and vegetation in crops such as tea, cotton, rice, and plantation crops. Known for its rapid burn-down effect, it ensures effective weed removal within hours of application. By disrupting photosynthesis and causing oxidative stress in plant cells, Sarvnash delivers quick desiccation of green foliage while binding strongly to soil particles, resulting in minimal residue buildup. It is suitable for pre-plant, pre-emergence, and post-directed applications, making it a versatile tool for weed management across different cropping systems.
