Glufosinate Ammonium 13.5% SL is a broad-spectrum, non-selective contact herbicide used for post-emergence weed control in agricultural and non-crop areas. It inhibits glutamine synthetase, causing ammonia accumulation and disrupting photosynthesis, leading to weed desiccation and death. It is widely used as an alternative to glyphosate, particularly in glyphosate-resistant weed management programs. Also known as Ammonium (2S)-2-amino-4-[hydroxy(methyl)phosphoryl]butanoate

Chemical Properties & Specifications
Used for weed control in row crops, orchards, vineyards, and plantations.
Applied for non-selective weed management in nurseries and landscaping.
Controls weeds in non-crop areas like roadsides, railways, and industrial sites.
It inhibits glutamine synthetase, causing ammonia buildup in plant tissues, leading to cell toxicity and death.
It effectively controls annual and perennial broadleaf weeds and grasses, including glyphosate-resistant species.
No, it is a contact herbicide, meaning it only affects the parts of the plant it directly touches.
Yes, it is often tank-mixed with other herbicides for broader weed control and resistance management.
It decomposes rapidly in the soil, reducing environmental persistence and allowing for crop rotation.
When used as directed, it has low acute toxicity but should be handled with proper safety precautions to avoid skin and eye irritation.
