Dicamba DGA

Type: Herbicide

Mode of Action: Mimics the plant hormone auxin

Common Product Names: Clash & Detonate

What is it?

Dicamba DGA is a potent and versatile herbicide used extensively in agriculture to control broadleaf weeds. As a systemic herbicide, it is absorbed by the plant's foliage and roots and then translocated throughout the plant. This systemic action ensures that even the most resistant weeds are effectively controlled. Dicamba DGA is used in both pre-emergent and post-emergent applications, although it is primarily known for its effectiveness as a post-emergent herbicide.Farmers favor Dicamba DGA for its ability to control weeds that have developed resistance to other herbicides, such as glyphosate. This active ingredient is particularly useful in no-till farming systems, where managing tough weeds is essential for crop success. The effects of Dicamba can usually be seen within a few days of application, with complete weed control occurring within a week or two, depending on the environmental conditions and the weed species targeted.

How does it work?

Dicamba DGA works by mimicking the plant hormone auxin, which is responsible for regulating plant growth. When weeds absorb Dicamba DGA, it disrupts their normal growth patterns by causing abnormal cell division and growth. This results in twisting, curling, and eventual wilting of the weeds. The herbicide is effective on a wide range of broadleaf weeds, including those resistant to other herbicides.
