Chances are you won't have to go far to find fence rows and other non-crop areas that were Infested with weeds this past season. Per haps now, right on your own farm, you have a tangle of dead weeds (and a fire hazard) like this one. Unless, of course, you've been using Atrazine 80W the highly efficient herbicide that can keep fence rows and other non-crop areas weed-free month after month with just one spray each year. Compare this to other methods like mowing, discing, or repeated applications of short-term control materials and you'll find one-step weed control with Atrazine reduces costs, saves time, and gives you much better results. Atrazine is effective against a wide range of annual and peren nial broadleaf weeds and grasses. Since seasonal rainfall will move Atrazine down Into the weed root zone, where it works, application should be made now In order to get the best results in this area. Atrazine also attacks weeds through foliage, so you can apply It shortly after weeds emerge, as well as before they break ground. Remember. Now is the time to act If you want non-crop weed control through next season with one spray this fall. Order Atrazine from your dealer today.
