Bromacil Market

Bromacil Market: Introduction

Bromacil is an organic compound commercially used as an herbicide. Bromacil is a group of a compounds called uracil. In the U.S., bromacil, and lithium salts are utilized to control weeds and brush. Bromacil is widely employed for brush and weed control in non-crop areas. Bromacil enters the plant via the roots and interferes with the process of photosynthesis. Bromacil is extensively used on selective crops such as citrus fruits and pineapple. It is also utilized to control perennial grasses. Key formulations of bromacil include emulsifiable concentrate, granular, pallets & tablets, and liquid. Bromacil is used for weed control in railroads, industrial yards, electrical switching stations, and other commercial areas. Bromacil is majorly applied by sprayers, aerosol, shakers, and sprinklers. 

Rising concerns about the growth of unnecessary weeds on farmlands across the globe is projected to fuel the demand for bromacil herbicide during the forecast period. Bromacil acts as an effective brush control herbicide and prohibits weed growth in non-crop areas. Increase in growth of unnecessary weeds and brushes, owing to change in climatic conditions, is fueling the demand for bromacil products worldwide. Increase in toxicity on farmlands by using herbicide, stringent regulations enacted by some countries and rising health concerns are key factors that are likely to hamper the bromacil market during the forecast period. 

Bromacil Market: Segmentation
