The herbicides are listed in alphabetical order by their common names. For example, the formulation widely known as Roundup is listed under the common name of its principal active ingredient, glyphosate. While common names are sometimes not as well known as trade names, it is the active ingredient that has the greatest influence on the behavior and properties of the product. Also, organizing by common names eliminates repetition. To assist you in finding information when you know only the trade name, Table 1 lists the trade name with the corresponding common name of the active ingredient. Included are links to the summaries given in this publication.
