Support for Cooperative Extension is supplied by federal, state, and county governments. Cooperative Extension provides the people of California with the latist scientific information in agriculture and family consumer sciences. It also sponsors the 4-H Youth Program. Cooper­ ative Extension representatives, serving 56 counties in California, are known as farm, home or youth advisors. Their offices usually are located -in the county seat. They will be happy to provide you with information in their field of work. The University of California's Cooperative Extension programs are available to all, without regard to race, color, or national origin.

INTRODUCTION This Weed Science Training Aid has been prepared to provide persons interested in weed science with an index to the array of common and trade names of herbicides. To avoid confusion between products the accepted common names of pesticides are nearly always used by state and federal regulatory agencies. In some instances the chemical name is given as well. University Weed Control Guides and Training Aids similarly use the common names of herbicides accepted by the Weed Science Society of America. When not too numerous to list, registered trade names are also included in University publications. Example of common, chemical, and registered trade names: WSSA common name 2,4-D Chemical name: (2,4-dichlorophenoxy) acetic acid Registered trade name: Formula 40 Chemical names are omitted since they are seldom used. For the chemical name of an herbicide, consult the registrant or the Herbicide Handbook of the Weed Science Society of America, Fourth Edition, 1979. No endorsement by the University of California is intended of listed products nor is criticism intended of those products not listed. For this first revision the available formulations for each product have been added. The abbreviations used for the basic types of formulations are as follows: WATER SOLUBLE PRODUCTS - W.S.P.

It is the most widely used herbicide in the world, and the third most commonly used in North America.[1] 2,4-D is also an important synthetic auxin, often used in laboratories for plant research and as a supplement in plant cell culture media such as MS medium. History 2,4-D was developed during World War II by a British team at Rothamsted Experimental Station, under the leadership of Judah Hirsch Quastel, aiming to increase crop yields for a nation at war.[citation needed] When it was commercially released in 1946, it became the first successful selective herbicide and allowed for greatly enhanced weed control in wheat, maize (corn), rice, and similar cereal grass crop, because it only kills dicots, leaving behind monocots. Mechanism of herbicide action 2,4-D is a synthetic auxin, which is a class of plant growth regulators.

  • Nomenclature of Commonly Available Herbicides in India
    NOMENCLATURE OF COMMONLY AVAILABLE HERBICIDES IN INDIA Prior to the widespread use of chemical herbicides, mechanical control and cultural controls, such as altering soil pH, salinity, or fertility levels were used to control weeds. The first widely used herbicide was 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, often abbreviated 2,4-D which kills many broadleaf plants while leaving grasses largely unaffected (high doses of 2,4-D at crucial growth periods can harm grass crops such as maize or cereals). The low cost of 2,4-D has led to continued usage today and it remains one of the most commonly used herbicides in the world. In 1950s triazine family of herbicides, which includes atrazine was introduced. Atrazine does not break down readily (within a few weeks) after being applied to soils of above neutral pH. Atrazine is said to have carryover, a generally undesirable property for herbicides. Glyphosate, frequently sold under the brand name Roundup, was introduced in 1974 for non- selective weed control. It is now a major herbicide in selective weed control in growing crop plants due to the development of crop plants that are resistant to it. Many modern chemical herbicides for agriculture are specifically formulated to decompose within a short period after application. This is desirable as it allows crops which may be affected by the herbicide to be grown on the land in future seasons. However, herbicides with low residual activity (i.e., that decompose quickly) often do not provide season-long weed control. List of herbicides with their common name

Introduction Soybeans and other crops have been improved genetically for many decades through traditional crop breeding – a technique that requires that species be sexually compatible. With the development of biotechnology methods, scientists have the ability to transfer single genes from one living organism into another, regardless of species or sexual compatibility. Varieties that are developed through the transfer of genes between species that are not sexually compatible are referred to as “transgenic.” Transgenic soybean plants have been developed with a gene from a soil bacteria that allows the use of an herbicide that would normally kill soybeans.

Juntunen Department of Fisheries and Wildlife Oregon State University Corvallis, Oregon and Logan A. Norris Pacific Northwest Forestry Sciences Laboratory and Range Experiment Station Forest Service, U. S.

No endorsement of products is intended nor is criticism implieLl to products mentioned or omitted. Recommendations are not made concerning safe use of products nor is any guarantee or warranty of results or effects of the products intended or implied. ii Chemical weed and brush control with herbicides is an important land management practice in modern agriculture and forestry. In some cases, herbicides are applied directly to bodies of water for aquatic weed control. More commonly, herbicides are applied to lands adjacent to waterways for general weed and brush control. The responsible applicator will avoid damage to fishery resources by being fully aware of a particular herbicides potential hazard to fish. Herbicide applications should be considered hazardous to fish when there is the probability fish will be exposed to herbicide concen- trations which are harmful. This bulletin offers information that will aid in selecting the particular herbicides and formulations of least hazard to fish considering the toxicity of the herbicide and the poten- tial for its entry into streams, lakes, or ponds. Entry of Herbicides into the Aquatic Environment In aquatic weed control, the effective concentration of herbicide in the water depends on the rate of application, the rate of the spread of the chemical, the size and chemical composition of the body of water, the rate of degradation or adsorption of the chemical on sediments, and the rate of mixing of treated water with untreated water.
