Vapor Effect Reduction from Volatile Herbicides

IntroductionDicamba and 2,4-D are growth-regulator herbicides that provide excellent broad-leaf weed control. Recently released trait genes allow for wide scale use of these herbicides over broad-leaf crops. Unfortunately, both dicamba and 2,4-D are known to have a high vapor pressure, which, under the wrong conditions, may lead to a cloud of herbicide...

Adjuvant Compositions and Related Methods for Reducing Herbicide Volatility

IntroductionHerbicides are applied to crop fields to prevent the growth of weeds. This helps to increase target crop yields. These herbicides act by preventing plants from photosynthesizing, growing, or by directly killing the plant. While extremely useful in reducing weed pressure in crop fields, weeds are continually being selected for herbicide resistance....
