Just as soon as the weather breaksThat's the time to spray your wheat herbicide this year to beat the weeds, get your best yield, and cash in on the market.

By ground rig or fly it on. To get your problem weeds out before they get ahead of your wheat and stunt your yield. Spray Igran any time.

You can do this with Igran because it's safe to wheat. That's why it's the fall herbicide you can spray in the spring. With liquid nitrogen to weed 'n feed in one pass, which is an excel lent idea this spring because we have the favorable soil moisture for it. And the good wheat prices. Why notuse2,4-D or MCPA? Because this is the year you want your best yield. And you can't get it if you wait until wheat tillers, until everything is "just so" for 2,4-D or MCPA. Besides, they don't get many of the problem weeds Igran gets. Like speedwell, chick weed, henbit, gromwell, tarweed, purple mustard, dog fennel, fan weed, bedstraw and others. In fact, Igran gives you control of most annual broadleaf weeds and grasses. Even gives partial control of cheatgrass, enough so you're able to make a crop.
