Extract

It has been difficult to accept as conclusive the indications that butyl ester forms of 2,4–D are more effective in the control of big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) than are isopropyl ester forms (2, 3, 5). Such indications may have been due to the manner of formulating the materials, and to the additives contained, rather than to differences between the esters. Additional information is necessary to prevent bias in the choice among ester forms.
