JustificationJustification
• -Synergies or negative interactions between this new herbicide and other agrochemicals, growth regulators and insecticide, and on integrated pest and crop management strategies
• -Synergies or negative interactions between this new herbicide and other agrochemicals, growth regulators and insecticide, and on integrated pest and crop management strategies
ObjectivesObjectives
• -Investigate effects of insecticides and plant growth regulators when co-applied with MON 3539 (Roundup Herbicide) on Roundup Ready Flex cotton.
• -Determine if possible effects are influenced by cotton growth stage at time of application.
