Subject: RE: Simazine vs atrazine


Lancaster, OH
Simazine is for grass. Atrazine is for broadleaves. Both are root absorbed so they need to be at or below germinating seed level to control a weed. If you are no-tilling, a combination of acetachlor and simazine is a very solid grass control approach. In this neighborhood, we would use 2# ai acetachlor, 1# ai simazine and 1-1.5 atrazine.

The atrazine rate would depend on the plan for post weed control. If we plan to use a post for some tough broadleaves, then we go with the lower residual rate. If we feel we will control them pre, then the higher rate.
