Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/21/2014 -- Herbicides are used to kill undesirable plants and weeds. They are a very essential part of modern agricultural practices. The herbicides market is dominated by players such as Syngenta (Switzerland), BASF (Germany), Dow AgroSciences (U.S.), Monsanto Company (U.S.), and DuPont (U.S.).
