[QUOTE="Bogweevil, post: 7030463, member: 48190"] Picloram, very similar to aminopyralid, used to cause problems in cereal straw but is now withdrawn. Regulators like aminopyralid because being bound to the lignin in grass and forage it is unlikely to pollute water courses unlike say 2,4-D. As you say, high profile organic gardener Charles Dowding has suffered probs at his Somerset smalholding - I feel organic growers should be self-sufficient and not boost fertility with bought in organic matter from conventional farms. I call that cheating. [/QUOTE]
