Description

Dichlorprop CAS NO 120-36-5 is a synthetic auxin herbicide belonging to the phenoxy family of plant growth regulators. This compound is valued for its selective post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in cereal crops and turf management. It is primarily required by the agricultural industry for crop protection and by professional landscapers for maintaining non-crop areas.

Application

• Selective Weed Control in Cereals: Post-emergence application for managing broadleaf weeds in wheat, barley, oats, and rye crops.
• Turf and Lawn Management: Used in professional turf care for controlling weeds like clover and dandelion in grasses.
• Non-Crop Area Maintenance: Vegetation management on industrial sites, roadsides, and railways.
• Forestry Management: Aids in site preparation and release treatments in conifer plantations.
• Formulation Ingredient: Serves as an active ingredient in the manufacture of various herbicide formulations, including soluble concentrates and granules.
• Research & Development: Used in agricultural research for studying plant hormone action and developing new weed control strategies.
