Gormec

Featuring glyphosate 41 %SL
as its active ingredient, GORMEC is a widely used herbicide suitable for various settings including agriculture, forestry, and aquatic weed control. It is particularly effective in managing weeds in soybeans, field corn, pasture, and hay. Glyphosate works by inhibiting the EPSP synthase enzyme within the shikimic acid pathway, crucial for producing aromatic amino acids needed for plant growth, leading to effects such as stunted growth and plant death within 4 to 20 days. While also serving as a growth regulator in certain crops, its safety profile is notable due to the shikimic acid pathway’s absence in mammals, suggesting a low toxicity risk towards non-target organisms.
