Subject: Request from Demson Fuller re napropamide

Al:

We did not ever find a good fit for napropamide in the desert. Did some testing several years ago but could not find weed spectrum where it would be of benefit. Can't remember crop phyto on cole crops but there should be veg reports between 1994-2003.
