This is the first time I have heard about this, and there seems to be good
information in it. I haven't checked up on it, but I do know one thing,
and that is that we have gotten loads of manure that did not in any way improve
plant growth. I can think of 3 times we brought in manure and where the
main pile went we could hardly get anything to grow for 2 years afterward.
This has concerned me so much that we got a couple of goats so I could control
their feed, on the assumption that it was that Milestone herbicide. This
article implies that much more may be involved. I figure that if I track
down one or two of the local farmers who are not growing Roundup Ready corn, I
could feed it to free range poultry and do okay. Either that or with a bit
more attention to a balanced ration I could house them like Louis Bromfield
talks about in his "Chicken Litter Story".
Any comments on this article would be of great interest
to me, and perhaps to some of you who don't always get the production out of
your trees or garden that you would like. Donna
