Seems like a distinction without a difference:
"Glyphosate is a broad-spectrum systemic herbicide and crop desiccant.
It is used to kill weeds, especially annual broadleaf weeds and grasses that compete with crops. Its herbicidal effectiveness was discovered by Monsanto chemist John E. Franz in 1970. Monsanto brought it to market for agricultural use in 1974 under the trade name Roundup."
