Sugarcane is a tall perennial grass of the genus Saccharum, native to Southeast Asia and parts of the South Pacific. It can grow in warm temperate or tropical climates. The internodes of the plant stalk are rich in the sugar sucrose. METRO STAR (Metribuzin 70% WP) is a selective systemic herbicide absorbed predominantly by the roots, but also by leaves, with translocation acropetally in the xylem. It is used for Pre/post-emergence control of most annual grasses and weeds including Cyperus, Cyndon, Chenopodium, Asphodelus, Avena, Lolium, Setaria, Phalaris and Alopecurus in sugarcane crops.
It is to be used in accordance with climatic conditions and approval of local Authorities. Every cultivar of commercially-grown sugarcane is a complex hybrid between several species and subspecies, all of which can potentially cross.
Sugarcane can grow in various types of soils – sandy, loamy, and clay soils, as well as both acidic and alkaline soils (within the pH range of 5 to 8.5). A well-drained loam with a pH of roughly 6.5 is absolutely ideal, but mechanical factors like soil compaction are much more consequential to crop success than soil composition and pH.
