Used here quite a bit as an alternative burndown option to glyphosate to try to keep Gly resistance down.


Also - used a lot in suspension fertilizers as burndown agent since gly will not work because the clay in the suspension will deactivate it.

On a some what related note, I was watching Harry's Farm Video from England the other day and he said that they had a seed treatment banned on Oil Seed Rape and as a result the cabbage stem beetle can drastically reduce plant stand/ yield so now some are spraying insecticide 7-8 times in attempt to control the beetle and now England is having to import large amounts of Rape from countries that did not ban the seed treatment - like Ukraine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjHN1mNxpz8 - start at 2:30 - he is interesting too listen too.

Just makes we wonder what people/ govt are thinking in banning farming tools. I guess they will not realize until it is too late!
