Glufosinate Ammonium 13.5% SL is a broad-spectrum, non-selective contact herbicide designed to control a wide range of grasses and broadleaf weeds in crops like cotton and tea. It works by inhibiting glutamine synthetase, leading to ammonia accumulation in plant tissues and causing cell death. This formulation is highly effective against persistent weeds such as Cynodon dactylon, Cyperus rotundus, Dactyloctenium aegyptium, and Digitaria marginata.
