Are there 2 different forms of regular 2-4d available...amine and chloride?

Hypothetically speaking, if guy sprayed a combo of gly and 2-4D amine on an Enlist bean plot that was looking kind of rough 2 weeks after planting, would it affect seeds that may not have germinated yet, or beans that were already up and of varying heights (0-4")?

Gallagher has performed well for me too.

Notices must be going out. I just got an email from my local office stating that my acres were accepted.

I would say it is working as expected. My intention was to use it to open up areas that are too choked up with thorns, and to reach areas that I can’t get to with the brush hog and tractor. I’ll go back in with Crossbow to finish them off when the sprout back. 0.25 acres down…75.75 acres to go.

That is one thing I have been thinking of.

I'm in the 6th year of ownership of my farm, which consists of 20+ acres of CRP on the south side, and 80 acres of timber on the north. In the 1st year, the 20 acres of CRP was in pretty poor shape, so my first project was killing it off and drilled Switch back in. Fast forward to today...I...

I found a slightly used DR one with a 26" cut for $1K. If it doesn't work on MFR, I'm sure I can find other areas to use it on...tree plantings, electric fence, cutting paths through switch, etc.

Which mower did you have?

I was just told by my local office that the application that I just submitted won't be looked at and hopefully approved by late summer. So, the acres we are enrolling now won't be converted back into habitat until next spring?

I had thought about that, but would need to hire some professionals. I have 25 acres of switch that we manage with fire, but the timber burn may be out of my league. I would be worried about it getting into the switch, or the neighbors....or burning for longer than I can babysit it.

I've been looking at options for managing the MF Rose in my 85 acres of timber. I intend to incorporate spraying as the kill method, but I think I will also need to get it mulched eventually. Hiring someone with a Skidsteer and mulcher has been explored, but could be cost prohibited....and I...

I think that the higher the CSR, the higher the rate/acre. If his CSR was low=lower cash rate.

My paperwork is getting signed tomorrow at $238/acre for Washington County with a CSR of 67. I was getting $250/acre cash rent when it was farmed. I'll be able to but in 2.5 acres (10%) in food plots.

They know the date the deed was recorded.
