- Accurate 70% WP is a selective herbicide containing metribuzin from the triazine group. It inhibits photosynthesis in weeds, causing growth to stop and the weeds to die gradually after uptake through the roots and leaves. It can be applied before weed emergence or after emergence at very early stages, and is highly effective mainly against broadleaf weeds, with supporting activity on some annual grasses in their early growth. Accurate is used mainly in potato according to approved recommendations.
