RESIDUAL WEEDKILLERS IN NON-SELECTIVE VEGETATION CONTROL

WHERE LONG-TERM, CONTINUING CONTROL OF WEEDS IS NEEDED, THE RESIDUAL WEED KILLERS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED. THEY ARE EASY TO APPLY, INEXPENSIVE, PROVIDE POSITIVE CONTROL OF SEED GERMINATION FOR LONG PERIODS AND ARE NON-TOXIC TO MEN OR ANIMALS. THEIR LIMITATIONS INCLUDE A TENDENCY TO LEACH HORIZONTALLY, WHICH MAY KILL TREES OR OTHER PLANTINGS ON THE ROADSIDE. A LIST OF WEED KILLERS IS APPENDED TO THE ARTICLE WHICH GIVES THE TRADE NAME, THE ACTIVE INGREDIENTS, AND THE PROPRIETOR. /AUTHOR/
