Formulation: aqueous solution
Intended use: systemic, broad-spectrum herbicide for controlling a wide range of annual and perennial weeds, as well as undesirable woody and shrub vegetation.
Restrictions: Hazard class IV (moderately hazardous substance) — practically non-toxic to bees. The following ecological regulations must be observed:
Apply treatment when wind speed is up to 5-6 m/s;
Bee protection buffer zone — at least 1-2 km;
Bee flight restriction — 6-12 hours.
Prior notification (4-5 days in advance) to both public and private beekeepers about planned treatments is required.
Toxicity: the product belongs to hazard class IV. Precautionary measures as stipulated in the "Hygienic Requirements for Storage, Use, and Transportation of Pesticides and Agrochemicals", SanPiN 1.2.1077-01, Moscow, dated November 8, 2001, must be followed.
First aid measures:
In case of accidental contact with skin or mucous membranes, immediately wash with a stream of water or remove with a swab and then rinse with water. Remove contaminated clothing and footwear. In case of ingestion —
immediately drink several glasses of water and induce vomiting, then drink 1/2 glass of water with 2-3 activated charcoal tablets or another adsorbent, and seek medical attention immediately. Do not induce vomiting in unconscious victims.

TECHNICAL SECTION
Mode of action: the product inhibits the synthesis of aromatic amino acids in actively growing plants.
Spectrum of activity: broad-spectrum efficacy against annual and perennial weeds, as well as woody and shrub vegetation.
Duration of protective effect: provides herbicidal action on sensitive weeds present at the time of application and does not affect those appearing later (second wave of weeds). Typically, one application provides effective protection throughout the entire vegetation period in the absence of a second wave of weeds. Speed of action: after penetration into above-ground plant organs, Glyphos® BP is translocated to the plant's root system. Visual symptoms of herbicidal action appear on most annual weeds within 2-4 days, on perennials within 7-10 days, and on woody and shrub vegetation within 20-30 days. Herbicidal action manifests as gradual wilting of treated weeds, accompanied by complete browning of above-ground parts and death of underground plant parts. Lower temperatures and precipitation following application may delay the manifestation of visual symptoms.
Possibility of resistance development: no cases of weed resistance to Glyphos® BP have been observed in experiments.
Phytotoxicity: lacks sufficient selectivity as it is a non-selective agent.
Compatibility with other pesticides: the product may be used in tank mixtures with other herbicides and nitrogenous fertilizers. Check compatibility prior to use.
Application technology
Prepare the working solution immediately before use and apply on the same day. Fill half the sprayer tank with water, add the full dose of the product, and top up with the remaining water. Mix thoroughly.
Prepare the working solution and refill the sprayer on designated special areas.
Use ground-mounted boom sprayers.
Apply in calm weather during early morning or late afternoon hours, ensuring even
leaf wetting. The interval between application and possible rainfall should be at least 5-6 hours.
Safety
Hazard class: IV (moderately hazardous substance). Hazard class — practically non-toxic to bees. The following ecological regulations must be observed: apply treatment when wind speed is up to 5-6 m/s; bee protection buffer zone — at least 1-2 km;
bee flight restriction — 6-12 hours. Prior notification (4-5 days in advance) to both public and private beekeepers about planned treatments is required.
