He started this thread by commenting how his lady was using an unlabeled
herbicide to kill dandelions in the strawberry patch:

Milady is in charge of killing dandelions on six acres of strawberries. Note
our spelling in the title. Diesel fuel werks grate. Just a squirt in the
whirl in early spring.


I am sick and tired of undergoing annual USDA chemical use audits.
It is caused by growers and applicators misusing and abusing materials.
The USDA audits the records to try and establish use patterns and to
catch some of these abuses or misapplications.
To publicly brag about the misuse of a material not labeled for use as a
herbicide gives the USDA more ammunition to continue these witch hunts.

Perhaps, Mr. Townsend should pay a little more attention during his
annual pesticide recertification classes, or, enlist a little more
pesticide education help from his County Extension Office.

I come to rec.crafts.metalworking for metalworking ideas in my
construction of crop and herbicide sprayers and other ag equipment, not
to try and find someone abusing ag materials.
