Sorry a bit late in responding
I'm not quite sure what the point was that you were trying to make Bill,
but small and large scale folks are using AACT successfully.
The point is that Rup and other products still have a place in
agriculture and statements that these products are 'not wanted in the world 'is
so much idealism and not practical.I believe I have read that there are bacteria
that can clean up oil slicks- if correct then is it not possible that bacteria
can be 'manufactured' to deal with any 'cide' excess in the soil?
It's a big job to do well. We have hints and ideas. Get good
biology in the soil, let it do the normal set of interactions, with us
encouraging maximum biology at every step, and the system seems to get back into
a good balance. Could we make it go faster? Could we understand
exactly what the important factors are? Sure. But it takes
time. And money.
I agree with the above statement, I have difficulty in imagining ACT controlling unwanted
plants. Which can be a volunteer plant from the previous crop, It cannot be
an exact science and so one will always be experimenting which is 'not on' on a
large scale.
Without rain for three & half months I have weeds
germinating in an area that was oats cut for hay, there is no way that ACT could
be effectively applied now so how are the weeds to be controlled before
they seed?. I do not wish to cultivate and cause dust and loose moisture . What
is the alternative ?The weeds did not germinate at the same time as the
oats but after they were cut.
Had hoped that some of your 'Os' wheat farmers may
have commented about the use of a knock down herbicide in their cultivation
programs.
So, send money............ :-) OK. I will send you 100 ? which is about 100$. Where do you
wish it to be sent.? Would be easier to send to SFW Lab. in Holland if
possible.
