Are you

i'm wild oats?

Use Avadex @ the soil applied control, and kill
'em as they sprout. That's of the best reasons
you could possibly have for putting it down.
Part of the damage has already been done when
you see wild oats In your crops Why share
water sunlight and nutrients with this annual
pest? You can prevent 95% more wild oats
from terminating.
Do you delay planting to avoid wild oats? This
delay could very easily reduce your yields 3OS
TO 4O96 per acre. Between the late start and the
early competition of wild oats, losses could be
more A foliage-applied wild oat killer requires
careful timing and should weather keep you out
of the fields, you are at the mercy of the stran-
Cling wild oat infestation. Never give wild oats
an even break Avadex kills wild oats as they
sprouti
Let's talk about money: Sugar beet growers save
two ways with Avadex. They cut hand Labor
costs about SIT an acre. Increased yields from
wild oat control run another $40 to $25 per acre.
So you grow peas 95& control of wild oats is
reported as yields jumped 50O-95O pounds per
acre. And, you won't have to go far to find some
who probably would have plowed under
without Avadex
When it comes right down to it, here's one good
reason why you should use Avadex it makes
you money. Ask your neighbors and see what
they have to say about Avadex. Then, prove it
TO yOurSel1. tut AVadex on the worst neld you
have for wild oats. Leave a strip right in the
center. You'll see the real difference. Wild oats
didn't get a start with Avadex.
Use Avadex BW, @ a special formulation for max
imum control of wild oats in wheat and barley.
The closer you follow directions, the better re-
suits you'll get Proper soil incorporation gives
Avadex the chance to perform best. Don't guess
ON anything you aren't sure about; see
petent agricultural authority. Let your farm
chemical dealer show you how Avadex or Avadex
BW can make you more money.
