Shivalik Rounder Herbicide - Glyphosate 41% SL Non-Selective Systemic

Shivalik Rounder Glyphosate 41% SL Non-Selective Systemic Herbicide

Shivalik Rounder is a non-selective, systemic post-emergence herbicide containing Glyphosate 41% SL. It is designed for management of actively growing susceptible grasses, broadleaf weeds and other labelled weeds.

Glyphosate is absorbed mainly through green foliage and shoots and moves systemically within susceptible weeds toward growing points and underground plant tissues. It works by inhibiting the EPSPS enzyme, disrupting essential amino-acid synthesis and stopping normal weed growth.

Product Specifications

Key Features & Benefits

• Non-Selective Herbicide: Controls a broad range of susceptible weed species.
• Systemic Action: Moves from treated foliage to growing points and underground tissues.
• Post-Emergence Use: Applied after target weeds have emerged and are actively growing.
• Annual & Perennial Weed Management: Suitable for registered grasses and broadleaf weeds.
• EPSPS Inhibition: Disrupts production of essential aromatic amino acids required for plant growth.
• Directed Spray Application: Useful for labelled weed management where desirable vegetation can be protected from spray contact.

Mode of Action

Glyphosate inhibits the enzyme 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) in susceptible plants. This interferes with synthesis of important aromatic amino acids including phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan.

After absorption through green plant tissue, Glyphosate moves systemically within the weed and progressively stops normal growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Shivalik Rounder?

Shivalik Rounder is a non-selective systemic post-emergence herbicide containing Glyphosate 41% SL.

What does non-selective mean?

Non-selective means the herbicide can damage or kill many types of susceptible green plants, including desirable plants contacted by the spray.

How does Rounder work?

Glyphosate is absorbed through green foliage, moves systemically within susceptible weeds and inhibits the EPSPS enzyme required for essential amino-acid production.

Which weeds does it control?

The registered use pattern includes several grasses and broadleaf weeds such as Cynodon dactylon, Imperata cylindrica and Sorghum halepense, together with other labelled monocot and dicot weeds.

Is Rounder a post-emergence herbicide?

Yes. Glyphosate 41% SL is used as a post-emergence herbicide on actively growing target weeds.

Is Rounder systemic?

Yes. It is a systemic herbicide that moves within susceptible plants after foliar absorption.

Can it be sprayed over standing crops?

Do not spray it over desirable standing crops unless that exact application is specifically approved on the current product label. Rounder is non-selective and may severely injure contacted crop foliage.

Disclaimer

Herbicide performance and legal use depend on the approved label, target weed, growth stage, weather, water quality, application technique and applicable regulations. Always use Shivalik Rounder strictly according to the current original label and Central/State Government requirements.
