You spend a lot of time and money to work the soil, plant and fertilize the . wheat, and maintain your equipment You get a good year with near perfect weather for good growth, in fact everything is right Except your herbicide. So you end up paying through the weeds for smaller yields. Poorer grades. Less profits. When you could be bringing in a higher grade. Because you're using a more effective, more selective, more profitable herbicide. Like Bronate. Bronate is more effective because it kills a broader range of broadleaf weeds. Including the six specific weeds that are the biggest problem for wheat farmers here in the Northwest Which means you kill Tarweed and Gromwell and Henbit and Dogfennel and Crowfoot What's more, you don't leave Purple Mustard or any of the mustard family around to rob your wheat of moisture and nutrients like one leading herbicide does. Bronate is more selective because it doesn't get rid of the wheat while it's getting rid of the weeds. It won't damage the crops or carry over in the soil like another leading herbicide. Which is what makes Bronate more profitable. Because it brings you a higher yield. A better grade. And more money. It's as simple as that All you do is apply Bronate post emergence. The earlier the better after your crop has reached the 3-leaf stage. Then sit back and watch the wheat grow. Nice and healthy. Weed free. What it adds up to is this: You only pay $3.45 an acre for Bronate. To get rid of all the broadleaf weeds. To be kind to all the wheat To bring in a better grade. And to get up to 12 to 20 bushels more per acre. Which is a pretty good investment for the right herbicide. Don't you think so?
