2,4-D is a synthetic auxin that is a class of plant hormones that regulates plant growth. It is absorbed through the leaves and is translocated to the region of cells capable of division and growth in plants. This induces a cascade of unregulated growth and eventual death in susceptible plants.

Use Directions |
| Annual and biennial weeds | 1 - 2 | Apply to annual weeds when small and actively growing |
