A lady I knew used atrazine in her farm where she planted maize, cassava and some cucumbers and she complained about poor growth. How is it used?

Check the label and you'll see the amount you'll apply per hactare or so. The lady probably didn't read or understood the label. This is a common problem for most farmers.

I agree with manger. Atrazine shud be used at low rates and it will kill grasses without killing the maize. At higher rates it will affect or kill maize. So follow manufacturer's recommended rate on the label.

Atrazine. I remember it way back to my primary school days. Does it have any effect on cassava, coco yam?

Yes it can also be used for yam and cassava at low rates.
