The Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Systems Analysis) (OASD (SA)) received the Herbicide File from the Military Assistance Command, Vietnam (MACV), which compiled the file so that OASD (SA) could document chemical and biological warfare missions (herbicide spraying) during the Vietnamese Conflict.

OASD (SA) used the file to assist in the assessment of the effectiveness of the crop destruction program and the war use of defoliants.
