No middleman ensures best quality at wholesale prices.
Willowood Patriot is a selective herbicide formulated with Imazethapyr 10% SL, developed for effective control of grassy and broadleaf weeds in soybean and groundnut crops. With systemic action, it is absorbed through foliage and roots, travelling within plants to inhibit the AHAS enzyme and block amino acid synthesis, ultimately stopping weed growth.
This patriot herbicide works in both pre-emergence and post-emergence stages, giving farmers flexibility and long-lasting weed suppression. It targets challenging weeds such as Cyperus difformis, Echinochloa crus-galli, Commelina benghalensis, and Trianthema portulacastrum, helping reduce crop competition and improving yield potential.
Patriot herbicide uses include integrated weed management programs where selective control is essential to protect crop health while minimising manual weeding costs. Its liquid formulation is easy to mix, compatible with standard spraying equipment, and safe for labelled crops when applied at the recommended patriot herbicide dosage.
