Extract

The announcement of the effectiveness of Isopropyl N phenyl carbamate as a graminicide received considerable interest by weed research workers. However, early attempts to control grasses with this chemical resulted in rather disappointing control. Subsequent work has shown that this can be largely attributed to improper usage of the material. Since this material is supposedly a growth regulating substance, it was reasoned that it should behave in a manner similar to 2,4-D. Study carried on in Oregon proved that this was not the case and that specific conditions are essential to maximum effectiveness of this chemical.
