Glyphosate is a highly efficient, non-selective, post-emergent systemic herbicide recognized globally for its potent ability to control a wide spectrum of annual and perennial weeds. As an organic phosphorus compound, it is absorbed by the stems and leaves of target plants and translocated to the roots, ensuring comprehensive eradication of deep-rooted weeds, sedges, and broadleaf species. This makes it an indispensable tool for modern agricultural productivity and land management.
Originally pioneered for rubber plantations to accelerate tapping cycles and increase production, the application of Glyphosate has expanded to forestry, orchards, tea plantations, and major crop rotations including rice, wheat, and rape. With its short residue life and high efficacy, it provides a professional-grade solution for maintaining plant health and maximizing agricultural yields across diverse environmental conditions.

Key Advantages
Broad-Spectrum Control
Effectively eliminates perennial deep-rooted weeds, annuals, biennials, and broadleaf weeds in one application.
Short Residue Life
Designed for rapid degradation, reducing long-term environmental persistence while maintaining high efficacy.
Systemic Action
Absorbed through foliage and translocated throughout the plant, killing the root system to prevent regrowth.
Versatile Application
Suitable for diverse environments including forestry, tea plantations, rubber estates, and cereal crop lands.
High Pure Formulations
Available in multiple grades from 30% SL to 97% TC to meet specific industrial and agricultural needs.
Production Booster
Proven to increase production capacity in rubber trees by allowing earlier tapping through weed control.

Investment Return Comparison
| Weed Category | Recommended Dosage (per 100m2) | Expected Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Annual Weeds (e.g. Crabgrass) | 6.0 ~ 10.5 g | Rapid Suppression |
| Dayflower & Horseweed | 11.4 ~ 15.0 g | Complete Eradication |
| Cogon & Reeds | 18.0 ~ 30.0 g | Deep Root Destruction |
| Rubber Plantation Grass | Standard Field Dose | Earlier Tapping Year |
| Forestry/Orchard Weeds | Variable Dose | Enhanced Crop Growth |
Frequently Asked Questions
Unlike selective herbicides, Glyphosate is non-selective, meaning it controls a wide variety of weed species including grasses and broadleaf weeds, making it ideal for total vegetation control.
It should be applied as a direct and even spray to the stems and leaves of the target weeds to ensure the systemic agent is absorbed and transported to the roots.
We offer a comprehensive range including Technical grades (95% TC, 97% TC) and various soluble formulations like 360g/L SL, 480g/L SL, and WSG/SP powders.
Yes, its application has been successfully extended to orchards, tea plantations, and forestry to manage invasive weeds and improve overall plant health.
It should be stored at approximately 4°C, away from strong oxidizing agents, strong bases, and metals, as it may be sensitive to light.
By effectively controlling grass weeds, it can allow rubber tapping to begin a year earlier and increase the overall production capacity of older trees.
