| Abstract/Contents: | Reports that three new herbicides have been accepted for registration by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services: SpeedZone, SpeedZone St. Augustine Formula, and PowerZone. Explains that the herbicides "contain the new turf herbicide carfentrazone-ethyl, and are useful for postemergence broadleaf weed control in several warm-season turfgrasses." Mentions that Florida's approval followed a fast-track approval of the herbicides by the US Environmental Protection Administration. States that "the EPA felt that because small amounts of carfentrazone-ethyl...were effective in enhancing weed control, and because the rates of other herbicide ingredients could therefore be reduced, it would be better for the environment to make the PBI Gordon products available quickly." |
