Dicamba is an herbicide derived from benzoic acid. It is used to control weeds and brush commercially, and is frequently one of many active ingredients in mixed herbicide products and lawn care products.</br>Dicamba functions by increasing plant growth rate by mimicking a natural plant growth hormone. At sufficient concentrations, the plant outgrows its nutrient supplies and dies.
