Chesley, Ontario | Hi, Bernie;
The story I got, years ago, was that May & Baker (who had both 2,4-db and bromoxynil) tested them both for seedling alfalfa, but determined that the market in Canada was only big enough for one of the products. Both have similar injury levels, but the bromoxynil injury was highly visible, with a lot of bleaching of the alfalfa leaves, while the twisting and curling from the 2,4-db wasn't as evident to a casual observer. Therefore, we have Embutox but not Pardner for alfalfa...which is good on the ragweeds, lamb's quarters and pigweed, but won't touch anything in the smartweed family. | |
