The best time to apply Roundup herbicide by Monsanto will
vary, depending on where you live, and when quackgrass
reaches the recommended stage of growth.
But now is the best time to see your farm chemicals dealer.
Before quackgrass robs your crop of moisture and valuable
nutrients. This spring, let Roundup herbicide make you an
ex-quackgrass grower, too.

Keep your attack on
corn rootworm going strong.
Just as in hockey, it takes two good lines to win.
One on the ice, keeping pressure on the opponent,
while the other gets a breather.
The same applies to corn rootworm insecticides.
University researchers say the best way to keep
rootworms from building up resistance to insecticides
is to alternate organophosphate and carbamate
insecticides each year.
To keep your rootworm attack going strong,
every year, alternate these two good lines:
Carbamate Line:
FURADAN - insecticide.
This hard-hitting carbamate
insecticide controls corn rootworms on
contact. Then it is absorbed by roots
to provide long-lasting residual control
of rootworms which hatch later in the
season.
This protects feeder roots needed for
fast, vigorous growth. And it protects
brace roots needed to prevent lodging
and harvest losses. The net result:
more corn

Organophosphate Line:
®DI-SYSTON
systemic insecticide.
The low-cost organophosphate insecticide with
rootworm wallop. Contact activity controls rootworms in. the
soil at planting time; systemic activity extends control
throughout the active larvae season. DI-SYSTON doesn’t
have a minimum rate to be economical and a maximum
rate to do the job. DI-SYSTON has only one rate—
a rate that is both economical and effective.
