Herbicide Modes of Action (effect on plant growth) This chart groups herbicides by their modes of action to assist you in selecting herbicides 1) to maintain greater diversity in herbicide use and 2) to rotate among herbicides with different sites of action to delay the development of herbicide resistance.

Classification of Herbicides by Herbicide Classification Mode and Site of Action and Chemical Family Herbicides may be classified into of herbicide-resistant weeds or problems These problems can be lessened by rotating families based on how they kill plants with chemical carryover. or combining herbicides with different (mode of action and site of action) or Repeated use of a herbicide or herbicides action sites. In the table the site of herbicide by chemical similarity. An example of a with the same site of action may lead to uptake is indicated by: R = root uptake; S = common commercial herbicide containing selection of herbicide-resistant weeds, shoot uptake; and F = foliage uptake. Letter the active ingredient is also listed.

Repeated use of herbicides other commercial herbicides that contain herbicide or herbicide family. For example, with a common mode and site of action pose the same active ingredient.
