Check Out why Glyphosinate Ammonium Is Strongly Recommended than the Glyphosate For Weed Control In Nurseries.

in #hive-114308last year

Hello dear Hivers... Today I would like to share how I tested the effectiveness of Glyphosate and Glyphosinate Ammonium as I was troubled by the fast growing weeds at the Main-nursery before planting. I had to run these test with one of my spraying gang to confirm the best herbicide to suppress the growth of weeds at the nursery and would also give you a hint on how to prevent it from touching the seedlings after planting.

Glyphosinate ammonium is an example of contact herbicide deu to it's modes of actions as it act on any part of the weed it touches while the Glyphosate is an example of systemic herbicide deu to it's mode of actions as it can be absorbed by the plant and translocated, effectively killing the weed down to the root system. The two herbicide are commonly used to control weeds but i highly recommend Glyphosinate Ammonium as the superior option based on an experiment i carried out with my worker on two different site, and i discover it's specific advantage. I initially wanted to check the outcome of the results after 5days, but was surprised by the visibility of the results after just 3days of application.

The Glyphosinate Ammonium is also known as Glufosinate which possesses the capability to control a broad spectrum of weeds in comparison to Glyphosate making it very useful in the nursery. The effects on weed can easily be seen within a short time frame, while the Glyphosate takes longer time to become visible. This attribute makes it more efficient in managing rapidly growing weeds within nursery environments.

The application of Glyphosinate Ammonium over time has proven a lower risk in developing resistance in weeds when compared to Glyphosate that led to the development of resistance in weeds. Employing the use of Glyphosinate Ammonium in the nurseries can assist in sustaining effective weed control for an extended period of time.

Furthermore, to control the spread of the herbicide and prevent it from reaching the seedlings, construct a nozzle guard using a plastic sheet or an aluminum shield in a cone shape and then attach it to the nuzzle. Also ensure that you keep your hands lower during the spraying process.

Lastly, the Glyphosinate Ammonium degrades very quickly in the soil and water making it less toxic to the environment when compared to Glyphosate which helps preserve the soil ecosystem.

Thank you for taking your time to read through. I hope you find it educating 😊
