Glufosinate-Ammonium Herbicide | High-Performance Non-Selective Weed Killer
Glufosinate-Ammonium is a broad-spectrum, contact herbicide widely used in agriculture, horticulture, and non-crop land management. With its fast-acting properties, high efficacy, and strong environmental compatibility, this non-selective weed killer is an excellent alternative to glyphosate-based products.
As a leading agrochemical manufacturer and supplier, we provide premium-quality Glufosinate-Ammonium formulations tailored for B2B buyers, distributors, and large-scale agricultural operations. Our Glufosinate-Ammonium 95% TC, 200g/L SL, and 50% SG are designed to offer superior weed control with extended residual effects.
Key Features of Glufosinate-Ammonium
- Broad-Spectrum Control – Effective against annual and perennial dicotyledonous and monocotyledonous weeds.
- Rapid Action – Blocks photosynthesis within 2-6 hours, leading to growth inhibition, chlorosis, and complete weed death within 1-2 weeks.
- Non-Residual in Soil – Quickly decomposed by soil microorganisms, ensuring minimal environmental impact.
- Long-Lasting Effects – Provides weed suppression for 25-45 days, longer than most traditional herbicides.
- Ideal for Non-Selective Weed Control – Can be used in orchards, vineyards, potato fields, and non-crop areas.
Chemical Properties
- Chemical Formula: C₅H₁₅N₂O₄P
- Molecular Weight: 198.157
- CAS Number: 77182-82-2
Mode of Action
Glufosinate-Ammonium disrupts the glutamine synthetase enzyme, which plays a crucial role in ammonia detoxification in plant cells. This disruption accumulates toxic levels of ammonia, ultimately leading to weed death.
Upon application:
- The herbicide is absorbed by the leaves and stems through contact action.
- Translocated within the plant via transpiration, affecting both the shoot and leaf tissues.
- Photosynthesis is blocked within 2-6 hours.
- Chlorosis and necrosis develop within 2-3 days.
- Complete weed death occurs within 1-2 weeks.
Unlike systemic herbicides like glyphosate, Glufosinate-Ammonium does not translocate to the roots, making it ideal for targeted post-emergence weed control.
Application of Glufosinate-Ammonium
Recommended Usage Across Various Crops
| Crop Type | Target Weeds | Application Rate | Application Method |
|---|---|---|---|
| Orchards (Citrus, Apple, Vineyards, etc.) | Broadleaf weeds, grassy weeds, ferns | 0.7-1.2 kg/ha | Foliar spray |
| Potato Fields | Annual and perennial weeds | 0.7-1.2 kg/ha (Pre-emergence) | Soil application |
| Non-Crop Areas (Roadsides, Industrial Sites) | Brush and woody vegetation | 1.5-2 kg/ha | Spot treatment |
| Rice, Wheat, Corn | Weeds competing with main crops | 1.0-2.0 kg/ha | Directed spray |
- Best applied during active weed growth stages.
- For broadleaf weeds, apply at the beginning of vigorous growth.
- For grassy weeds, apply at early tillering stages.
- For maximum control, reapply after 4-6 weeks if necessary.

Safety and Environmental Considerations
While Glufosinate-Ammonium is highly effective, responsible handling is essential to ensure environmental safety and operator protection.
Safety Precautions
- Always wear protective equipment (gloves, mask, goggles) when applying.
- Avoid spray drift to neighboring crops susceptible to non-selective herbicides.
- Keep away from water bodies to prevent aquatic toxicity.
- Do not mix with glyphosate, as it may reduce effectiveness.
Toxicity & Environmental Impact
- Moderately toxic to humans and mammals – Proper PPE should always be worn.
- Low soil persistence – Quickly degraded by soil microbes, reducing long-term contamination risks.
- Non-selective nature – Avoid application on desirable plants.
