Enlist™ ready for corn launch in ’13
Byron Hendrix, Dow AgroSciences
Byron Hendrix, Enlist field specialist for Dow Agrosciences, says they are excited about the Enlist weed control system that – pending regulatory approval – will be ready for corn in 2013, soybeans in 2015 and cotton in 2016. Hendrix says the system will help growers use multiple modes of action in dealing with hard to control weeds and glyphostate resistance and in a drought year like we’ve had with control being especially difficult.

Enlist products use herbicide 2-4,D which is a major componet of Agent Orange. (If you do not know what Agent Orange is look it up on Youtube.)
I say the risk to the farmland is not worth it.
