2,4-D is hard on corn - thats why its not used in modern corn production. It's a growth hormone that causes the corn to grow more quickly and get weak. (this is also why broadleaves get longer and limp before they die) What I've used in the past is Impact - its been out a couple of years - I don't think its restricted use, very safe to humans and corn has a lable for commercial sweet corn (same day reentry for humans) It will bleach the weeds (turn them white) b4 they die - a 30 oz jug will cost about $400 but you only use b/w 1/2 and 3/4 oz per acre.(post emerge) It will control most grasses and all broadleaves. If money really isnt an oject thats what I'd do. Other new products like Laudis are similar. If your in a corn growing area you can probably get a partial jug from a custom applicator or even an empty jug - the residue will do 1 acre - buy the staff dinner or doughnuts and he'll probably give it to you. another piece of advice - if the ground will rotate to tomatos or a broadleaf crop use caution a 3x rate will show up next year - if corn its no problem - impact is somewhat safer to corn than Laudis on sensitive varieties- there is also Liberty sweet corn available from NK

The roads were general gravel, so the lugs cutting into them wasn't a problem. George would set up the thresher, s
