Used primarily as a herbicide to control broadleaf weeds in various crops, including cereals, grasslands, and turf. It works by mimicking natural plant hormones, causing uncontrolled growth that ultimately leads to the death of the targeted weeds. Effective in selective weed control, it minimizes damage to desirable plants when applied correctly. Also employed in forestry management to clear unwanted vegetation and maintain healthy tree growth. Its application requires careful handling to avoid environmental impact and ensure targeted effectiveness.
