The Herbicide Classifi cation Chart is your QUICK START GUIDE most important tool for taking action against HOW TO USE THE HERBICIDE your worst weeds. By knowing herbicide groups by their site of action (SOA), you CLASSIFICATION CHART can diversify your herbicide applications to reduce your risk of herbicide resistance. The left half of the chart classifi es herbicides by HERBICIDE their mode of action (MOA). CLASSIFICATION REPEATED USE OF HERBICIDES WITH THE SAME SITE OF ACTION CAN RESULT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF HERBICIDE-RESISTANT WEED POPULATIONS. For example, Groups 2 and 9 are both Amino Acid MODE OF This chart groups herbicides by their modes of action to assist you This chart lists premix herbicides alphabetically by their trade by in selecting herbicides 1) to maintain greater diversity in herbicide by PREMIX names so you can identify the premix’s component herbicides ACTION use and 2) to rotate among effective herbicides with different sites and their respective site-of-action groups.
