Ferio Herbicide – Fast, Non-Selective Weed Control for Clean Fields
Ferio is a powerful non-selective herbicide containing Glufosinate-ammonium 13.5% SL, crafted to provide broad-spectrum weed control across a wide range of crops and non-crop areas. Specially formulated for Indian agricultural conditions, Ferio delivers rapid knockdown of annual and perennial weeds, including grasses, sedges, and broadleaf species, helping farmers maintain weed-free zones for healthier and more productive crops.
Ideal for use in cotton, tea, orchards, plantations, and inter-row spaces, Ferio works by contact action—disrupting the plant’s internal systems and quickly killing green plant tissue it touches. It is especially valuable in resistance management programs, offering an effective alternative to glyphosate in fields struggling with resistant weed populations.
🧪 Mode of Action
Ferio contains Glufosinate-ammonium, which targets and inhibits the glutamine synthetase enzyme in plants. This causes a rapid accumulation of ammonia in plant tissues, leading to cellular breakdown, necrosis, and plant death within days of application.
