Its pur pose is to provide technical, edu cational. and financial investment to encourage the enhancement of environmental stewardship,” said John F. Tarburton, president-elect of NASDA and secretary of the Delaware Department of Agricul ture before a USDA forum on the 1995 Farm Bill. VARMPs are an integrated mammals, but is essential to plant growth. Acifluorfen and sethoxydim will complement Cyanamid’s imi product portfolio and offer grow ers with additional weed manage ment options. Cyanamid plans to launch the new products in 1966. The pro ducts will be sold in 12 states, including Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, Mis souri, Wisconsin, lowa, Minneso ta, Kansas, South Dakota, and Nebraska.

The concept would afford increased outreach to farmers by providing knowl edge and direct goverment invest ment to farmers for implementa tion of the resource management plan. Farmers and ranchers clearly support congressional efforts to offer them incentives rather than mandates to allow them to volun tarily manage their land and balance their economic needs with their land’s environmental needs. Data recently released by NASDA showed that 74 percent of 1,200 farmers and ranchers surveyed in Indiana, lowa, Kansas and Missis sippi believed it was important to include the VARMP concept in the 1995 Farm BiU. “We’re pleased to add these products to our portfolio and pro vide growers with additional, effective weed management options.
