Description

Glufosinate-Ammonium is a highly effective, non-selective, contact herbicide and a key active ingredient in modern agricultural science. It functions as a potent inhibitor of glutamine synthetase, leading to the rapid accumulation of ammonia in plant tissues and effective weed control. This product is essential for agricultural professionals, formulators, and researchers involved in crop protection, no-till farming systems, and the development of herbicide-tolerant crop technologies.

Application

• Broad-Spectrum Weed Control in agricultural fields for crops like canola, corn, soybeans, and fruit orchards.
• Burndown Herbicide in no-till and minimum-till farming practices to manage weeds before planting.
• Desiccant for pre-harvest weed management in various crops to facilitate harvesting.
• Industrial Vegetation Management on non-crop areas such as railways, roadways, and industrial sites.
• Key Component in the formulation of commercial herbicide products for global agricultural markets.
• Research & Development for studying plant physiology, herbicide resistance, and developing new agrochemical formulations.

Quality Control

Our Glufosinate-Ammonium is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. The product undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and impurity profiling, to meet relevant agricultural grade specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, moisture content, and other critical parameters is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the original container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and handling properties.
