Glyphosate in France

I think it has been mentioned before here that glyphosate is available in France much cheaper that in UK. I shall be going to France on holiday for most of September and will have this on my shopping list. Where is the best/cheapest places to buy this stuff bearing mind I only have sufficient French to get typically get a meal and a bed for the night and could not support a conversation on the relative concentrations and applications of the stuff!! What are the brand names to lookout for please and does it come in the bewildering range of concentrations that we get here? I'd like 360 or 540 gms per litre so I can make up my own dilutions. Is glyphosate the same word in French? Is désherbant the key word to be looking for? Hopefully some of our French resident readers can help. TIA Bob Prices have got up somewhat recently. You can pick up a 5 litre container of concentrate for around 30 euros. I use this at a rate of 50ml in 5 litres of water in the sprayer; though this is perhaps a little stronger than needed. I forget the official dose. It is called glyphosate the same. Pronounce it glee-fo-sat and you should not have any problems. I get mine from E'Lecler - the supermarket chain have some agricultural sections in their DIY branches. How much is it in the UK now? -- David in Normandy.
