Hugh, I agree with you to the extent that we cant hold ourselves or farmers blameless in giving ehe environmentalist wacos plenty of fodder. not unlike a lot of oter people, we get into this mode of "Since some is good, more has to be better" mentality. We've done it with herbisides and pesticides, we've done it with fertilizer, we've done it with Horsepower, and just about everything else in our lives. Heck, we can't even live in the same size house we did 50 yrs ago. If it doesnt have at least 3.000 sq ft, it wont do. I digress. As to the herbisides, fertilizers and pesticides, I believe there should have been a lot more training for the users, and not just advertising info, but real usefull results oriented data. The companies threw it all out there, and left it up to the farmers to figure it all out. All these products are usefull if used properly, but it is also easy to misuse them through ignorance, thereby giving the environmentalists the traction they get. I think the hardest thing for anyone to be able to conceive is that some of these products require only a few ounces per acre to be effective. Our brains dont relate to that idea very well. Its like trying to explain a tenth of a second. However, all this not withstanding, I am apalled by the fact that our legislators act without reliable and accurate data when they succumb to the emotions of a few activists who heap piles of conjecture, false data, unfounded scenerios, and otherwise fraudulant agendas when banning a product. I also agree with you that the average suburbanite wanting to use these products on his lawn and garden has no business using such products without proper education and orientation. I don't know about licensing, but certification is certainly not inappropriate. Even diluted versions of some products available in garden centers can be misused if the user is not properly informed.

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro ... [Read Article]
