Himax Herbicide (Glufosinate Ammonium 13.5% SL)

The "Chemical Plough" for Cotton, Tea, and Soybean Farmers.

Himax by Insecticides (India) Limited is a powerful, broad-spectrum post-emergence herbicide. It provides a smart alternative to manual weeding, acting as a "middle path" between slow-acting systemic weed killers and instant burn-down chemicals.

Best For: Farmers seeking cost-effective weed control (saving up to 70% compared to manual labor) while ensuring crop safety in wide-row crops like Cotton and Tea.

Why farmers choose itWhy Choose This Product? Key Benefits
  • ⏱️ Rapid Action: Visible yellowing of weeds in 2–3 days; complete death (desiccation) in 3–5 days.
  • ?️ Crop Safety Margin: Ideal for inter-row spraying. Unlike Glyphosate, accidental drift causes only localized spotting, not whole-plant death.
  • ⏳ No Soil Residue: Degrades in soil within 3–10 days, making it perfectly safe for crop rotation.
  • ?️ Rainfast in 4 Hours: Contains high-load surfactants (approx. 60%) that resist wash-off from sudden showers.
  • ? Controls Resistant Weeds: Highly effective against tough weeds like Parthenium, Amaranthus, and Echinochloa.

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action

Himax works by inhibiting the Glutamine Synthetase enzyme in plants. This causes a rapid buildup of toxic ammonia within the weed cells.

  1. Absorption: The specialized surfactants allow the liquid to penetrate waxy leaves instantly.
  2. Blockade: It stops nitrogen metabolism, leading to "ammonia poisoning" inside the plant.
  3. Burn Down: Cell membranes rupture, photosynthesis stops, and the weed dries out completely.

Note: Activity is faster in bright sunlight due to increased plant metabolic rates.

How to applyDosage & Application Guide

The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. Do not cut corners on water volume.

How to applyDosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)

*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.

Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
  • Timing: Apply when weeds are young (2–4 leaf stage) and actively growing. Sunny weather improves results.
  • Mixing: Use clean water. Avoid muddy water as it can slightly reduce potency. Use Flat Fan or Flood Jet nozzles for a uniform spray sheet.
  • Coverage: Himax is a "Contact Herbicide." It only kills what it touches. Ensure complete wetting of the weed foliage.
  • Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Use a spray hood/shield in Cotton to prevent drift onto crop leaves.
