Ioxynil is a post-emergent [4] selective nitrile herbicide. It is used in Australia, New Zealand [ 5 ] and Japan [ 6 ] to control broadleaf weeds via the inhibition of photosynthesis . It is used notably on onion crops, [ 7 ] among others, normally at 300–900 g/Ha. [ 8 ]
Roundup is a brand name of herbicide originally produced by Monsanto, which Bayer acquired in 2018. Prior to the late-2010s formulations, it used broad-spectrum glyphosate-based herbicides . [ 1 ] As of 2009, sales of Roundup herbicides still represented about 10 percent of Monsanto's revenue despite competition from Chinese producers of other ...
2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula Cl 2 C 6 H 3 OCH 2 CO 2 H.It is usually referred to by its ISO common name 2,4-D. [4] It is a systemic herbicide that kills most broadleaf weeds by causing uncontrolled growth, but most grasses such as cereals, lawn turf, and grassland are relatively unaffected.
While the use of Roundup Ready crops has increased the usage of herbicides measured in pounds applied per acre, [9] it has also changed the herbicide use profile away from atrazine, metribuzin, and alachlor [citation needed] which are more likely to be present in run off water.
