Used primarily as a selective herbicide in agricultural settings, it effectively controls broadleaf weeds in crops such as wheat, barley, and oats. Its application ensures minimal impact on the desired crops while targeting specific weed species. Farmers apply it during early growth stages of weeds for optimal effectiveness. It is also valued for its ability to degrade relatively quickly in the soil, reducing long-term environmental impact. Proper handling and application are essential to avoid unintended damage to non-target plants.
