Abstract
Tests show that wheat and barley can withstand higher concentrations of 2,4-D when an iron additive is included in the spray solution—indicating the possibility of obtaining increased growth of cereals over a broader range of 2,4-D concentrations and increased efficiency of broad-leaved weed control.
