Distinct Herbicide Label

Distinct (EPA 7969-150) is a Group 4 and 19 dicamba and diflufenzopyr herbicide labeled for 5 crops. The label lists 123 controlled weeds, plus partial-control, suppression, and partner-control categories.

“Distinct is absorbed by leaves, roots, and shoots and is translocated to the growing points of sensitive weeds to provide postemergence control of emerged weeds as well as moderate residual control of germinating weeds. Distinct controls weeds by auxin transport inhibition and auxin agonist modes of action.”
