Uproot Herbicide

Uproot is a non-selective, systemic herbicide. It is sprayed on green leaves, then moves down to the roots and kills the whole plant. It controls annual and perennial grasses, broadleaf weeds and woody brush, including stubborn weeds such as spear grass and nutsedge. Farmers use it to clear land before planting and to keep fence lines, roadsides and farm paths clean. It kills any green plant it touches, so keep it off your crops.
