Abstract
The herbicide, 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D) controls broadleaf weeds in forage crops. In the work reported, the compound was fed to a dairy cow and was found to be absent as a residue in the milk and feces. It also did not decompose in a natural or artificial rumen.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
