SUMMARY
Di-allate is a herbicide that no longer has approval for use in the EU. It has a low aqueous solubility but is miscible with many organic solvents. It is volatile and expected to be moderately persistent in soil systems. Di-allate is moderately toxic to mammals, carcinogenic and a recognised irritant. It is moderately toxic to fish but little data is available regarding its toxicity to other species. GENERAL INFORMATION
