North of London | After the discussion below about measurements I happened on this article about medications given to children and the number of errors. http://thinkprogress.org/health/2014/07/14/3459703/metric-system-overdose/
Failing to use the metric system ends up leaving parents confused about exactly how much liquid medication to give their kids, according to new research published in the Pediatrics journal. Nearly 40 percent of parents who participated in the study measured wrong when they were given a prescription in teaspoons or tablespoons. Another 40 percent read the prescription dosage wrong.
And that confirms what I was saying about people using 2 systems to spray crops.
The report is here http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/early/2014/07/09/peds.2014-0395.abstract
