Shriram Acriter Herbicide – Mesotrione + Atrazine for Corn & Sugarcane

Broad-Spectrum Weed Control Herbicide for Corn and Sugarcane

Shriram Acriter Herbicide is a selective weed management solution formulated with Mesotrione 2.27% + Atrazine 22.7% SC. It is recommended for effective control of grasses, sedges and broad leaf weeds in corn and sugarcane crops.

Acriter provides dual mode weed control by combining the action of Mesotrione and Atrazine. This combination helps manage a wider range of weeds and supports cleaner crop fields during the early growth stage, reducing weed competition for nutrients, moisture, sunlight and space.

Dual-Action Herbicide for Early Weed Management

Weed pressure during the early crop stage can reduce crop growth and affect yield potential. Shriram Acriter is designed for application when weeds are at the 3-4 leaf stage, helping farmers control weeds before they become more difficult to manage.

How Shriram Acriter Works on Weeds

Acriter works through two different herbicide actions. Mesotrione inhibits HPPD, an important enzyme involved in carotenoid biosynthesis in plants. Atrazine inhibits photosystem II in weeds, affecting their photosynthesis process.

This dual action helps provide broad-spectrum weed control against grasses, sedges and broad leaf weeds. By controlling weeds during the early stage, Acriter helps the main crop grow with less competition and better field cleanliness.

Weed Groups Controlled by Acriter

• Grassy weeds
• Sedges
• Broad leaf weeds
• Mixed weed population in corn and sugarcane fields

Dosage and Water Requirement

Best Time to Apply Acriter

Shriram Acriter should be applied when weeds are at the 3-4 leaf stage for optimal control. At this stage, weeds are actively growing and easier to manage compared to older or well-established weeds.

Timely application helps reduce early weed competition and supports better crop growth in corn and sugarcane fields. Farmers should ensure uniform spray coverage for better weed control performance.

Spray Preparation and Application Method

1. Check the field and confirm that weeds are at the 3-4 leaf stage.
2. Measure 1400 ml of Shriram Acriter for 1 acre.
3. Take around 200 litres of clean water per acre.
4. Fill the spray tank halfway with water.
5. Add the measured quantity of Acriter and mix properly.
6. Add the remaining water and stir again for uniform spray solution.
7. Spray evenly across the field to cover the weed population properly.
8. Follow label guidance for crop-specific use and field conditions.

Why Farmers Can Choose Shriram Acriter

Farmers can choose Shriram Acriter Mesotrione 2.27% + Atrazine 22.7% SC for broad-spectrum weed control in corn and sugarcane. Its dual-action chemistry helps manage multiple weed groups and supports cleaner fields during the early crop stage.

With proper application timing, correct dose and recommended water volume, Acriter helps reduce weed competition and supports better crop growth under suitable farming practices.

Crop Nutrition and Weed Competition Advantage

Weeds compete with crops for nutrients, water, sunlight and space. In corn and sugarcane, early weed pressure can affect crop establishment and growth. Acriter helps manage weeds during their early stage, allowing the main crop to use available field resources more effectively.

Important Use Note

Use Shriram Acriter only in recommended crops and at the recommended dose. Apply when weeds are at the 3-4 leaf stage for better results. Application timing, water volume and spray coverage should be followed as per product label and local agricultural guidance.
