Herbicides

Glyphosate is a broad-spectrum, systemic herbicide widely used to control weeds and unwanted vegetation in agriculture, forestry, and urban areas. It works by inhibiting an enzyme essential for plant growth, leading to the death of targeted plants. Glyphosate is non-selective, meaning it can affect most plant species, and is often applied to crops engineered to be resistant to it. While it is highly effective and widely used, glyphosate has been the subject of health and environmental safety debates, with concerns about its potential impacts on humans, wildlife, and ecosystems.
