How It Works: Mode of Action
Atrazine interferes with photosystem II, part of the machinery plants use to capture light energy. Susceptible weeds lose the ability to maintain normal photosynthesis.
- Uptake: The active ingredient can enter susceptible weeds through roots and foliage.
- Photosynthesis block: Atrazine interrupts photosystem II electron transport.
- Growth disruption: Reduced energy production disrupts weed growth.
Use the current label and local resistance-management advice. A second active ingredient or a change of brand does not guarantee that resistance will be prevented.

Dosage & Application Guide
These are manufacturer product-page references, not a substitute for the supplied label. Keep product amount, water and harvest interval paired with the same crop.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (g / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose / Litre | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sugarcane | 400–1600 | 200 | Confirm* | Confirm* |
| Maize | 400–800 | 200 | Confirm* | Confirm* |
Synergy gives 200 L/acre for both crop rows. The page does not supply a PHI or separate per-litre quantity. Confirm the timing, permitted rate within each range and missing waiting information before spraying.
*A field marked “Confirm” is not established for use here. Obtain the missing or corrected instruction before treatment; an absent PHI does not mean zero days.
No spray-tank quantity, rainfast period, re-entry interval, repeat interval or maximum application count is inferred. Check the label for these instructions.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Application route: Spray application; confirm the crop-specific route and timing.
- Match the treatment: Use the named crop and weed, and follow the crop and weed stage stated on the supplied pack.
- Mixing and coverage: Use the labelled equipment and water instructions. Do not assume that this product can be mixed with another pesticide.
