The hormone that helps to get rid of broad weeds is:
2:4D.2:4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid
It is an organic compound having the chemical formula C₈H₆Cl₂O₃.
It is considered to be herbicide that is systemic because it is capable of killing various broadleaf weeds in a selective manner.
Since it is capable of selectively targeting such weeds, other variety of grasses such as lawn turf, grassland etc. remain unaffected by their application.
