Waiting to use a rescue treatment like Accent* can cost you up
to twice as much as using Roundup® herbicide to stop quack
grass before your com is up. But that’s not all you’ll pay...
WAITING CAN COST YOU
14 BU/A IN YIIIO
Quackgrass is an aggressive competitor for soil moisture
and plant nutrients. And if you wait until your com is up
to control quackgrass, you’ve already lost yield. University
tests have shown that waiting to control quackgrass can
cost you up to 14 bushels per acre. And then there’s the
i matter of reinfestation...
QUACK CAN COME BACK WITH
A VENGEANCE
You know how tough quackgrass can be. Unfortunately,
post treatments like Accent don’t. They often just
knock quack back instead of controlling the entire
plant, rhizomes and all, like Roundup. The result?
Quackgrass comes back and you’re back to square one.
DON'T WAIT UNTIL IT'S TOO LATI
Using Accent after the damage is done can be
costly. So .don’t hesitate. Use Roundup to stop
quackgrass before it robs you of yield and profit.
See your dealer for
the early, economical
quackgrass control
of Roundup.
