Dessicator
Paraquat Dichloride 24% SL
DESSICATOR Non-Selective fast acting contact Herbicide
DESSICATOR is a non-selective herbicide controlling a wide range of annual grasses broad-leaved weeds and the acropetal portions of established perennial weeds.
DESSICATOR acts very fast whenever it is in contact with the foliage and other plant parts and will get inactive upon contact with soil.
DESSICATOR is used to control broad leaved and grassy weeds in the Forest lands, in arable lands as pre-planting herbicide and also in vacant spaces of the cropped area for weed control.
DESSICATOR destroy plant tissues by disrupting photosynthesis and rupturing cell membranes, resulting rapid wilting and desiccation of foliage.
