How It Works: Mode of Action
Grumman contains glufosinate-ammonium, a glutamine synthetase inhibitor. It is not a crop-safety guarantee: prevent contact with non-target vegetation and follow the exact placement instructions.
- Enzyme inhibition: Glufosinate inhibits glutamine synthetase.
- Metabolic disruption: This disturbs normal nitrogen metabolism in susceptible plant tissue.
- Placement matters: Use only the current label’s crop-specific technique; do not assume over-the-top application is permitted.
Changing brand names does not necessarily change the mode of action. Follow a crop-specific resistance-management plan and all limits on repeat applications.
Target Crops & Weeds
Mahindra’s Grumman recommendation table names the following crop-and-target pairings.
| Crop | Target Weed(s) |
|---|---|
| Tea |
|
| Cotton |
|
Each target belongs only to its listed crop. Do not extend these recommendations to unlisted crops or assume that every listed target applies to every crop.
Dosage & Application Guide
Check the current pack before measuring product. The public manufacturer table uses a combined g/ml dose header without identifying the product unit. Quantitative directions are withheld until that ambiguity is resolved.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Product rate | Water volume | Method | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tea | Confirm label unit | Confirm label basis | Follow label | Not verified |
| Cotton | Confirm label unit | Confirm label basis | Follow label | Not verified |
The manufacturer’s product-dose heading is per hectare, not per acre. No operational dose or acre conversion is supplied from the ambiguous unit heading. The water column also needs its area basis confirmed on the pack.
PHI means the interval between the last application and harvest. An unverified waiting period does not mean zero days.
Confirm crop stage, equipment, repeat interval, maximum applications, re-entry and weather restrictions. No universal per-litre or tank recipe is inferred.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Match the target: Check the full Grumman identity, crop and target against the supplied label.
- Measure correctly: Use the label’s explicit product unit and water volume; do not substitute a hectare quantity for an acre quantity.
- Follow the approved method: Use only the preparation, equipment and application route specified on the pack. Do not assume a tank mixture is permitted.
- Protect people and water: Wear the specified protective equipment and prevent drift or runoff into water and neighbouring crops.
Frequently Asked Questions

What is the dose per acre or per litre?The public table does not identify an unambiguous product unit. Obtain the complete label directions before measuring or converting a rate.
Can I copy a glyphosate tank recipe?No. Grumman contains glufosinate-ammonium, not glyphosate. Active ingredient, formulation and label directions differ.
When can the crop be harvested?The current crop-specific waiting period was not verified. Confirm it on the supplied label before use.
