“Basis Gold® has been the best
herbicide we have used for the
control of Johnsongrass in
corn. While our initial reason for
using Basis Gold® was for the
control of Johnsongrass we
found that with a Basis Gold®
and Clarity l tank mix we also
had excellent control of all our
weeds.”

“I use Basis Gold® because it
works. I do custom work for
other farmers and I see what
works and what doesn’t Basis
Gold® is a much better alterna
tive than using a Roundup
Ready 2 corn program. Basis
Gold® has given me the best
overall control for shattercane
and foxtail, along with excellent
Tnazme resistant weed control.
It is also easy to use due to the
way the Basis Gold® is pack
aged. Basis Gold® is an eco-
nomical way to control weeds
in my cornfields. This will be
my third year controlling weeds
with Basis Gold®.”
