2,4-D Dimethylamine Salt

The most widely used water-soluble formulation of 2,4-D, supplied as a ready-to-use aqueous concentrate (SL). It combines the low volatility and low odour of the amine salt with instant solubility and fast uptake, making it the workhorse for broadleaf weed control in cereals, maize, rice and pasture across price-sensitive and high-temperature markets alike.

Technical specification

Mode of action

The dimethylamine salt dissociates in the spray tank to release the 2,4-D anion, which is absorbed through leaves and roots and translocated to meristematic tissue. As a synthetic auxin it binds the TIR1/AFB co-receptor complex, destabilises Aux/IAA transcriptional repressors and drives sustained, unregulated growth-gene expression. Susceptible broadleaf plants respond with epinasty, stem splitting, vascular collapse and death. Grass crops detoxify 2,4-D rapidly and remain tolerant.

What it controls

Annual broadleaf weeds: pigweed, lambsquarters, ragweed, wild mustard, shepherd's pursePerennial broadleaf weeds: Canada thistle, field bindweed, docks (Rumex spp.)Broadleaf weeds and sedges in rice and sugarcaneWoody regrowth on pasture and non-crop land at higher ratesPre-plant burn-down vegetation ahead of maize, soybean and cotton
