    The mature trees came back with leaves the next spring but 1200, two year old trees never came back.
    It was +38c and a 40k wind it also wiped out 25 acres of oats.

This year the same family took out 3 bee hives when the drifting hopper spray came this way. All done with a high clearance.

      Chemfallow likely had banvel or another group 4 that did most of the damage. In our neck of the woods carragana take everything that gets thrown at them, no problem. Elms are another story.

          I really think twice about ever getting aerial spraying done again. The last time I saw the spray coming on at twice the height of the trees and was foof and gone. That was fungicide and I have no idea what percentage of that load actually hit the crop. The best pilot from that operation I would get but you book your spraying and never know which inexperienced top gun you’re getting
