Ron, looks like you did nice work mounting the Gandy unit to your 1790.

As I'm sure you know the Aztec in SBs is 3.25#/ac so the concentration evidently must be quite a bit stronger. One reason that I have heard tat the stronger formulation is notavailable in bags is that any rate error is magnified & they are worried about potential lawsuits from farmers that get off rate & have problems More likely is that Amvac is paying a royality to them to only package it in the SBs.

I heard of one farmer that had his granular boxes calibrated by a rep. He knew that the product was going on at a higher rate than required but planted his entire corn crop that way then refused to pay the cost of the extra insecticide claiming it was the rep's fault.
