Hexazinone

Type: Herbicide

Mode of Action: Inhibiting photosynthesis 

Common Product Names: Velpar

What is it?

Hexazinone is a systemic herbicide, which means it is absorbed by plants and translocated throughout their tissues. It is primarily used for controlling a wide range of annual, biennial, and perennial weeds, woody plants, and grasses. It is particularly effective in forestry, non-crop areas, and industrial sites. Hexazinone can be applied as a liquid or granular formulation, depending on the specific needs of the vegetation management program. Hexazinone is effective both as a pre-emergent and post-emergent herbicide, meaning it can control weeds that have already emerged and those that have not yet sprouted. Typically, visible results can be seen within a few days to a few weeks, depending on the plant species and environmental conditions.

How does it work?

Hexazinone is absorbed by plant roots and foliage. Once inside the plant, it inhibits the photosynthesis process, leading to a gradual decline in plant health and eventual death. 

Benefits

  • Versatile application: Can be used in various settings, including forestry, industrial sites, and non-crop areas.
  • Residual activity: Provides long-lasting control, reducing the need for frequent reapplications.
  • Systemic action: Ensures thorough eradication of targeted weeds by translocating throughout the plant.
