Spencer 260 OD contains:
• Atrazine from Chlorotriazine chemical group; absorbed mainly by the roots and it functions by inhibiting photosynthesis.
• Nicosulfuron from Sulfonylurea chemical group; rapidly absorbed by the foliage and roots and it inhibits cell division and growth of the target weeds.
• Mesotrione from Triketone chemical group; mainly absorbed by the foliage and roots and it functions by inhibiting essential enzymes in the the target weeds
MODE OF ACTION:
Spencer 260 OD has a unique blend of three effective active ingredients from different herbicide groups for enhanced efficacy against weeds. Spencer 260 OD is taken up by the plant through the shoots and leaves of weed seedlings resulting to disruption of various plant bio-processes.
