BASF reduces herbicide price
The Agricultural Chemcials Division of
BASF Canada Inc. announced in
November it will lower by 11.5 percent the
suggested list price of Basagran herbicide,
widely used in Eastern Canada for
postemergence weed control in soybeans
and corn without risk of crop injury.
"With the poor prices that have been
characteristic of soybeans and corn in the
last few years, Canadian farmers need to
hold down production costs without
sacrificing effective broadleaf weed con-
trol," said Hans Loose, national sales and
marketing manager. "We intend to help
them meet that need."
Basagran received federal registration
in 1975, and is the only broad-spectrum
postemergence broadleaf herbicide' for
soybeans in Canada.
Loose said the price reduction will help
farmers better cope with the tough
economic conditions laguing Canadian
agriculture, particularly in Ontario where
farms have been hard hit by low soybean
and corn prices.
Loose pointed out that BASF is confident
Basagran will continue to displace tradi-
tional soil -applied preemergence her-
bicides. "Postemergence products offer
important benefits unmatched by
preemergence herbicides," he said, citing
application flexibility, crop tolerance, lack
of herbicide carryover, control of triazine-
resistant weeds, and less dependence on
soil -related conditions.
"We are committed to remaining a long-
term partner of the Canadian farmer,"
