Grassy Weeds Stealing
Nothing can steal profits from your corn crop quite like grassy weeds
-especially giant foxtail and other foxtails. Where these pests grow uncon
trolled, corn yields are sure to drop. This year, don’t let it happen to you.
Hire a killer . . . Ramrod, the remarkable new pre-emergence herbicide
developed by Monsanto Company to control grassy weeds before they
start. .. without harm to com, and without chemical carryover in the soil
to wreck your crop rotation plans. Ramrod, the careful killer, stops grassy
weeds during the early stage of crop growth when weed competition has
its worst eftfeot on yields. Then Ramrod disappears, leaving your fields
. clear of weeds and chemical. All you get is more money in your pocket ait
harvest. Talk to us today about Ramrod ... best friend your com ever had!
