In celebration of its 70th anniversary, Industry Task Force II on 2,4-D Research Data unveiled the 2,4-D Research Portal.
The portal is designed to meet the needs of researchers in government, academia and the green industry, acting as a source for peer-reviewed publications and regulatory decisions on 2,4-D.
Multitudes of research studies have been conducted in the molecule’s 70-year history to ensure farmers and like contractors are using a product that has been analyzed for safety. That research first began in 1942, leading to a patent being issued in 1945. Tagged as the world’s first selective herbicide, 2,4-D also was named as one of the 75 most important inventions of the past 75 years by the Henry Ford organization.
