Penn State University weed scientist David Mortensen estimates that in three or four years, farmers 'use of dicamba and 2,4-D will increase by 55.1 million pounds a year because of resistance to Roundup. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Monsanto and other companies are developing new seeds designed to resist older herbicides like dicamba and 2,4-D, a weed killer developed during World War II and an ingredient in Agent Orange, which was used to destroy jungle foliage during the Vietnam War and is blamed for health problems among veterans. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Allthough dicamba could kill superweeds such as Mr. Holthouse's pigweed, soybean farmers haven't sprayed it because it kills soybeans, too. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Both 2,4-D and dicamba, another older herbicide, are common ingredients in weedkillers at lawn-and-garden stores, which homeowners are careful to keep away from flowers and vegetables. ❋ Unknown (2010)
A dicamba-tolerant soybean variety would change that. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Some of the old pesticides in particular, those called 2,4-D and dicamba have a history of posing more risks for the environment than the chemical in Roundup. ❋ Unknown (2010)
The growth of pigweed, which can quickly reach widths of 6 inches at the stalk, and other invasive, glyphosate-resistant species increases farmers reliance on more high-risk herbicides, including 2,4-D, dicamba and paraquat, and has resulted in a return to hand harvesting and even abandoning of fields. ❋ Unknown (2009)
My standard recommendation for controlling horseweed is 8 ounces of a dicamba product like Clarity tank-mixed with glyphosate or other herbicide to control other weeds present. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Glyphosate, triclopyr, dicamba and 2-4, D are the most commonly available in garden centers. ❋ Unknown (2010)
"Grazon P+D, GrazonNext, ForeFront, and 2,4-D plus dicamba are just a few of the herbicides available for the control of these annual weeds." ❋ Unknown (2010)
Unfortunately, neither glyphosate nor dicamba is extremely good on henbit. ❋ Unknown (2010)

I have had several questions about using higher than 8 ounce rates of dicamba. ❋ Unknown (2010)
The weeds were not growing and failed to take in the herbicide and the extremely dry soil did not allow any soil activity from dicamba. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Products that contain 2,4-D and or dicamba are recommended for broadleaf weed control, be sure to follow label directions.
