whole-job soil fumigant—you'll get more pounds of tobacco per acre— more profits too!
Row Fumigate— AH types of nematodes, soil disease, and weeds, can be contiolled by
Vorlex when it's applied as a row fumigant. . . and at a cost starting as low as $20.00 per
acre <
Or Broadcast (overall) Fumigate—Vorlex can also be used as a broadcast fumigant
to control nematodes, soil disease, and soil insects.
