Subject: Extreme vs. Pursuit + glyphos price comparison --math


Chem dealer quoted about $12.75 for Extreme an acre. My book says thats 2# ai glyphos and .17 ai of Pursuit chem(cant spell those names) per gallon and use rate is 3 Pt. per acre. or .75 # of Glyphos per acre and .06375 # or ai of Pursuit per acre. So one little bag of DG should do 17.64 acres and a gallon of 4# Clearout would do 5.33 acres. Or a cost of $12.60 per ounce of DG which divided by the 17.64 acres is 71 cents an acre for Pursuit and Clearout at say $11/gal. would be divided by the 5.33 acres and figure out to $2.06 / acre. Which added together is still only $2.77 per acre. Where does the other ten bucks or so go??? Surfactants maybe?? Where is MY math defective??? Can it take so little chemical to get results when added together or is this a weed bible misprint???
