How It Works: Mode of Action
Glufosinate ammonium inhibits glutamine synthetase in plants.
- Glutamine synthetase is inhibited: Glufosinate belongs to HRAC 10.
- Plant metabolism is disrupted: This interferes with normal nitrogen metabolism in susceptible weeds.
- Protect the crop: Non-selective activity means placement and drift precautions must follow the label.
A different brand is not necessarily a different mode of action. Follow resistance advice and the label; no formulation is claimed to eliminate resistance.
Target Crops & Weeds
Current manufacturer crop scope is retained below. Named weed pairings use the September 2025 Indian formulation reference unless stated otherwise; confirm that they match the supplied Himax label.

Dosage & Application Guide
Manufacturer rates and historical formulation-reference checks are distinguished below. These public details do not replace the complete current pack directions.
Crop-specific Rate & Application Checks
| Crop / use | Product amount | Dilution water* | Programme check | PHI (days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tea | Rate withheld | 375–500 L* | Confirm placement | 15 |
| Cotton | Rate withheld | 500 L* | Confirm placement | 96 |
The September 2025 glufosinate ammonium 13.5% SL (15% w/v) reference gives dilution water 375–500 L for tea, PHI 15 days; and 500 L for cotton, PHI 96 days. The water column does not state an area basis, so these are not water-per-hectare or water-per-acre directions. Product entries 2.5–3.3 and 2.5–3.0 lack explicit units under the mixed-unit heading, so no product rate is calculated.
IIL calls Himax non-selective and post-emergent, listing tea and cotton with 1000–1320 ml but no area basis. Do not assume that quantity is per acre or broadcast over the crop. Obtain the supplied label’s exact rate, placement and equipment precautions.
Confirm application method, crop and weed stage, field conditions, equipment, permitted mixtures, repeat limits, re-entry and rotational-crop restrictions on the current pack. No per-tank recipe is inferred.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Identify the field situation: Match the crop, establishment method and weeds to the supplied label.
- Use the complete programme: Verify rate, water, placement, timing and field conditions before treatment. Do not guess a missing detail.
- Protect adjacent vegetation: Prevent drift or runoff onto non-target plants and water bodies. Follow the pack’s equipment and buffer precautions.
- Plan the next crop: Follow harvest, grazing and rotational-crop restrictions. Do not assume a safe plant-back interval from a different product.
