2,4-D Information Update

2,4-D Information Update

Dear KCGO Members,

With the spraying season commencing, growers are urged to be cautious when spraying 2,4-D in our regions

with spray drift potentially causing damage to nearby crops in surrounding areas.

Please find below fact sheets regarding 2,4-D and recent legislative changes informing growers of the best solutions to comply

and minimize these issues.

If you require further information, please contact the KCGO office for assistance.

Regards,

Dave
