Hovy much teSts!?
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?
