FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention generally relates to low volatility auxin herbicide formulations.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Auxin herbicides have proven to be effective and highly beneficial for control of unwanted plants. Auxin herbicides include 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid), 2,4-DB (4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)butanoic acid), dichloroprop (2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)propanoic acid), MCPA ((4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)acetic acid), MCPB (4-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)butanoic acid), aminopyralid (4-amino-3,6-dichloro-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid), clopyralid (3,6-dichloro-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid), fluoroxypyr ([(4-amino-3,5-dichloro-6-fluoro-2-pyridinyl)oxy]acetic acid), triclopyr ([(3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinyl)oxy]acetic acid), diclopyr, mecoprop (2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)propanoic acid) and mecoprop-P, dicamba (3,6-dichloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid), picloram (4-amino-3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid), quinclorac (3,7-dichloro-8-quinolinecarboxylic aci...
