Description
2,4-D Main is a selective, systemic, post-emergence herbicide from ADAMA, formulated with 2,4-D Dimethyl Amine Salt 58% SL. It is designed for the effective management of susceptible broadleaf weeds in recommended crops. The herbicide is absorbed through the foliage and translocated within the weed, disrupting normal plant growth and ultimately leading to weed suppression.
Key Features
- Contains 2,4-D Dimethyl Amine Salt 58% SL in soluble liquid formulation.
- Selective, systemic and post-emergence herbicidal action.
- Effective against susceptible annual and perennial broadleaf weeds.
- Amine salt formulation offers reduced volatility compared with volatile 2,4-D ester formulations.
- Suitable for use only in crops and at application timings specified on the approved product label.
Key Benefits
- Effective Broadleaf Weed Control: Helps control susceptible broadleaf weeds that compete with crops for nutrients, moisture, sunlight and growing space.
- Systemic Action: Absorbed by weed foliage and translocated within the plant for effective suppression.
- Selective Action: When used according to the approved label recommendations, it provides selective weed management in recommended crops.
- Efficient Weed Management: Helps reduce weed competition and supports healthier crop growth.
Safety Precautions
- Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye protection while handling and applying the product.
- Avoid contact with skin and eyes and do not inhale spray mist.
- Prevent spray drift onto susceptible broadleaf crops, ornamental plants and other non-target vegetation.
- Keep the product in its original, properly labelled container and store safely away from children, animals, food and animal feed.
