Herbicides

Herbicides are plant protection products designed to suppress or eliminate unwanted vegetation by disrupting essential physiological or biochemical processes in target weeds. In ornamental horticulture, they are primarily used as pre‑emergent treatments, forming a protective layer in the growing media that inhibits germination and early root or shoot development of both broadleaf and grassy weeds. When correctly applied, modern formulations provide long‑lasting residual control, supporting cleaner production environments, reducing manual weeding pressure, and safeguarding crop quality without impacting desirable species.
