Glufosinate ammonium is a broad-spectrum contact-killing herbicide with the characteristics of broad weed-killing spectrum, low toxicity, high activity and good environmental compatibility. Its chemical formula is C5H15N2O4P and its molecular weight is 198.16. The mechanism of action of glufosinate ammonium is mainly to kill weeds by interfering with the protein synthesis of plants. It has contact and systemic effects, can be quickly absorbed by plants, interferes with the protein synthesis of plants, and causes plant death. Glufosinate ammonium has low toxicity to mammals and birds, and has relatively little impact on the environment.
The following points should be noted when using glufosinate ammonium correctly:
1. The best time to use it is when weeds are growing vigorously, when the weed control effect is best.
2. Determine the appropriate concentration and dosage to avoid damage to crops.
3. Avoid using glufosinate ammonium in high temperature, high humidity or extremely dry environments, as these environmental conditions may affect the efficacy of the drug.
4. Do not spray glufosinate ammonium directly on the green part of the crop, otherwise it may cause crop damage.
5. Glufosinate cannot be mixed with alkaline substances, otherwise the efficacy may be reduced.
The use of glufosinate can greatly improve the efficiency of rural planting, but if it is not used correctly, it will not only affect the weed control effect, but may also cause damage to crops and the environment. Therefore, it is very important to master the correct usage methods and precautions.
