Widely used as a herbicide to control broadleaf weeds and grasses in various crops, including corn, soybeans, and wheat. It is effective in pre-emergent and post-emergent applications, preventing weed growth and competition with crops. Also employed in non-agricultural settings like turf management and industrial areas to maintain weed-free zones. Its selective action ensures minimal impact on desirable plants while targeting unwanted vegetation. Additionally, it is utilized in research studies to understand weed resistance mechanisms and develop sustainable agricultural practices.
