Herbicides Flashcards
1
Q
2, 4-D
- MOA:
- Chemical Forms
- Weeds Controlled
- Considerations
A
MOA: Auxin ( Growth Regulator)
Chemical Forms: Amines (salts), Esters, Acid
Weeds Controlled: some Broadleaf, not Grasses
Considerations: Esters are volatile in the heat. Can damage bentgrass is percentage is too high. 0.60 % or less is best for sensitive turf.

Triclopyr
- MOA:
- Chemical Forms:
- Weeds Controlled:
A
- MOA: Auxin (growth regulator)
- Chemical Forms: Acids, Amines (salts), Esters
- Weeds Controlled: Broadleaf and Woody Plants
3
Q
Dicamba
- MOA:
- Chemical Forms:
- Weeds Conatrolled:
- Considerations:
A
- MOA: Synthetic Auxin (Growth Regulator)
- Chemical Forms: Several Auxins and an Acid
- Weeds Controlled: Broadleaf Weeds and some Woody Plants
- Considerations: Volatile in heat, high percentages can damage trees and ornamentals (low rate would be 0.6%)
4
Q
MCPA
- MOA:
- Chemical Forms:
- Weeds Controlled:
- Considerations:
A
- MOA: Auxin (PGR)
- Chemical Forms: Amines and Esters
- Weeds Controlled: Broadleaf and Woody Plants
- Considerations: Longer residual (2-3 months) than 2, 4-D (1 month) but more selective. Does better on woody plants than 2, 4-D
