| When animals are fed hay that has been treated with either picloram or 
clopyralid, these chemicals pass quickly through the animal without significant 
degradation and end up in the manure via the urine, usually within a day or two. 
Manure application to agricultural production fields is a beneficial and common 
practice. However, if sensitive crops (i.e. soybeans, lentils, peas, legumes, 
potatoes, tomatoes or peppers) are 
planted in fields where contaminated manure has been applied, injury or crop 
death can occur. Injured plants can exhibit twisting (epinasty), leaf cupping, 
and loss of apical dominance, resulting in short plants and abnormal side 
shoots. Yes, our pepper plants show all these 
symptoms!  Donna  |
