Extract

One of the major costs in the production of woody ornamentals is for weed control by cultivation and hoeing. In nurseries, plants are grown in the same location for two to five years, and several species often are grown in mixed blocks. Thus, there is a need for a herbicide which is non-toxic to as many species as possible.
