    Ok fair enough. I agree the Chem company should have there ducks in a row. But cry all u want it says right on the website they are not supporting the use in cereals. Doesn't matter if u want to or not it's not supported. Trust me I have 1000 acres of shit wheat with volunteer rr canola I can't kill. I have to swath the crap when maybe Heat would have taken care of it for me. Could I say screw it and do it anyway. Sure but why the hell would I want to be the one who caused a boatload of wheat to be rejected overseas.
    It's registered but there are issues in some markets. Next year it might be cleared up. This year it isn't. Everyone is upfront asking u to not do it. So pout al u want but the fact is this year stick to what is approved and leave it as that.
    We are all so dam big we want to do something a certain way and find the magic spray to cure everything. It's Aug 29, I'll swath the crap and combine it in 5 days and everything will be ok.

      Heat LQ is labelled as a different name in Eastern Canada (Eragon LQ).

        Yup... and BASF "supports" it's use on cereals.

        https://agro.basf.ca/eragonlq/preharvest.html

        LOL.

        Btw the EFSA has set MRLs for heat... I did a quick search of their site and came up with a pdf...

        I have a feeling this is our grain companies doing and nothing more.

          Guys that have swathed here only 5 days ago have green growing thru their swaths already.

          Just second growth with warm temps and moisture. It won't let the swaths dry.

          I think that's why guys are looking at these other options.

          But all the options should be well defined ahead of harvest as far as chemicals go.

                    Open sunday's - lol. The secretary was running the show at one local elevator and only two half wits at the other today - OMG !! - again - WHO WANTS TO WORK IN AG ??? Combines going everywhere here. They should all get fired and apply at the post office - what a joke !!!
                    Local dealership had 1 frickin guy till noon yesterday - fukin seriously ??? Then they have the balls to say we cant take this or that because is it's been sprayed with a registered chem but maybe not registered chem - *** me. Walmart employies work more than these pricks this time of year and that's simply horrible.
                    Ya I know my spelling , grammer and swearing are bad - shoot me, deal with it.
