season-long weed control. That’s why it pays
to load up with Bullet* herbicide. Bullet
is encapsulated to shoot through heavy
crop residue. So while others volatilize off the surface
or get tied up in residue, Bullet gets into the soil to stop
germinating weeds.

Wolff Says Gov. Casey’s
Budget Good To Ag
HARRISBURG (Dauphin Co.)
Gov. Robert P. Casey’s new
state budget will improve efforts
to protect animal health and food
inspection programs, and provides
funds to help farmers develop
nutrient management plans,
according to Agriculture Secret
ary Boyd E. Wolff.
- “The governor’s budget calls
for $207,000 in state funds and
$2.4 million in Capitol Budget
funding to improve diagnostic ser
vices at laboratories at Penn State.
University of Pennsylvania and
the agriculture department’s
laboratory,’’ Wolff said.
“This budget gives us the
resources to complete the diagnos
tic improvements initiated by the
Animal Health Commission.”
“Wolff praised the governor’s
proposal to reduce the corporate
new income tax from 12.25 to
9,99 percent over the next three
years.
“The governor’s business tax
cuts will benefit farmers and food
processors, providing an oppor
tunity for growth at a time when
we’ve been having great success
finding new markets here at home
and overseas.”
Wolff also said the new budget
provides a 9.8 percent increase in
funding to operate the State
Department of Agriculture.
“The governor’s spending plan
puts up $lOl,OOO to beef up
inspection and testing programs
that will guarantee continued con
sumer confidence in the food and
milk supply,” Wolff said.
“The Departmens will also get
the support we need to certify the
specialists who will write the
plans that will help farmers meet
nutrient management
requirements.”
