Glyphosate 48% SL

GLYPHOSATE 48% SL is a widely used non-selective and systemic herbicide formulated as a Soluble Liquid (SL) designed for effective control of a broad spectrum of annual and perennial weeds in agricultural and non-crop areas.

 

 Mode of Action:

Glyphosate: A systemic herbicide that inhibits the EPSP synthase enzyme in the shikimic acid pathway blocking the synthesis of essential amino acids required for plant growth.

It is absorbed through leaves and translocated throughout the plant, including roots, leading to complete weed death.

 

Target Weeds:

Effective against a wide range of annual and perennial weeds, including:

  • Grassy weeds (e.g., Cynodon dactylon – Doob grass)
  • Broadleaf weeds (e.g., Parthenium hysterophorus – Congress grass)
  • Sedges (e.g., Cyperus rotundus – Nut grass)

 

 Crop Usage:

  • Non-crop areas: Roadsides, bunds, irrigation channels
  • Orchards: Mango, Citrus, Guava (directed spray)
  • Pre-plant application: Before sowing crops
  • Inter-row application: With care to avoid crop contact

 

 Key Benefits:

  • Non-selective: Controls almost all types of weeds
  • Systemic action: Kills weeds from root to shoot
  • No soil residual effect: Safe for next crop
  • Effective on perennial weeds
  • Rainfast after few hours of application
  • Cost-effective and easy to use
  • Improves field sanitation and land preparation
