HERBATE 2,4ED
layenonc. Mat
For only 35 cents' worth of HERBATE 2,4-D
you can clear out the weeds in an acre of _
corn. HERBATE 2,4-D saves you time and
money. ... helps you get bigger and more
profitable yields.
HERBATE 2,4-D, applied at recommended
stage of growth, kills most broad-leaved
weeds with no risk of crop damage. It kills
sensitive weeds outright and controls more
resistant ones. -
C-1-1. MCP Sodium is especially recommended
for weed -kill in peas and other sensitive crops,
including corn and also grain crops seeded to
legumes (except sweet clover).
HERB4TE Amine 80 works more slowly than
Esters ... is safer near 2,4-D susceptible crops.
Especially suited to weed control in cereal nurse
crop'-
HERBATE Ester 64 is highly effective for con-
trol of 2,4-D susceptible species of brush as well
as weeds.
