What is Imazapyr?

Imazapyr is a non-selective herbicide used for the control of a broad range of weeds including terrestrial annual and perennial grasses and broadleaved herbs, woody species, and riparian and emergent aquatic species.

How does Imazapyr work? (Mode of Action)

Imazapyr kills plants by inhibiting the first enzyme acetohydroxyacid synthase used when plants synthesize branched chain amino acids. Within a few hours after treatment with imazapyr, synthesis of DNA (genetic material) and cell division stops. Next plant growth stops, first in the roots and then in growing portions of the above ground plant. This is presumably because of the lack of necessary amino acids. Complete death of the plant occurs slowly, taking as long as a month after treatment.

Keep out of reach of children.

Always check the label for warnings and instructions for use.
