Extract

In studying herbicides in relation to a complex weed like nut grass (Cyperus rotundus L.), it soon becomes clear that high efficiency is attained only if the herbicide is able to penetrate and translocate readily to all parts of the plant, still retaining sufficient toxicity to kill every one of the vital organs.
