Pre harvest with airplanes….

[Sheepwheat]

I have been trying to kill trees for years with roundup both spring and fall and doesn't touch them. Not sure how drift could kill any amount of trees. Reglone would never harm a tree either.

If I could post pictures I would. Three times on three different fields this has happened.

White poplar
Black poplar
Willow
All understory shrubs like hazelnuts, chokecherry, Saskatoon, dogwood, Pincherry, gone.

Notice I said preharvest with planes. Not insecticides, not fungicides, not in crop weed or pressed burn. PREHARVEST.

I stand by my hope and wish for a ban. Planes going sunup to sundown in today’s wind.

20 years ago we got wiped out from the guy next door doing chem fallow, it took all the leaves of the older trees and killed off 1200 smaller trees, it’s kinda depressing when all the leaves are gone on August 4th. This year the same family took out 3 bee hives when the drifting hopper spray came this way. All done with a high clearance.

Roundup kills trees after the equinox
Guaranteed

They use Roundup in Forrestry to take the faster growing deciduous trees out of slow growing spruce or pine.
Product used to be called Release if I remember.

Coniferous trees have very high tolerance.

The mature trees came back with leaves the next spring but 1200, two year old trees never came back.
It was +38c and a 40k wind it also wiped out 25 acres of oats.

Chemfallow likely had banvel or another group 4 that did most of the damage. In our neck of the woods carragana take everything that gets thrown at them, no problem. Elms are another story.

Guys like that need a slap

I really think twice about ever getting aerial spraying done again. The last time I saw the spray coming on at twice the height of the trees and was foof and gone. That was fungicide and I have no idea what percentage of that load actually hit the crop. The best pilot from that operation I would get but you book your spraying and never know which inexperienced top gun you’re getting
