Chemical Alternatives to Methyl Bromide
Three soil fumigants were evaluated at a nursery in Georgia and one in South Carolina. Seedbed density and seedling development were compared among plots treated with tarped and not tarped dazomet at 140 and 280 lbs/ac, tarped and not tarped chloropicrin at 125 and 250 lbs/ac, tarped MC33 at 350 lbs/ac and non-fumigated plots.
