Lockstar is a cutting-edge pre-emergent residual herbicide designed for total weed prevention on non-crop land. Powered by an innovative combination of diflufenican (360g/kg) and iodosulfuron (10g/kg), Lockstar controls a broad range of grasses and broadleaf weeds with residual action lasting up to 4 months.

This granular formulation dissolves rapidly in water and remains in suspension for at least 24 hours, ensuring consistent and even application via knapsack or boom sprayer. Lockstar is ideal for non-crop areas such as railway ballast, fence lines, pavements, yard edges, and permeable surfaces over soil.
