Using a red/yellow/green designation, the product advisory sheet (see above or download below) offers alerts on products so farmers can either clear it with a buyer or recognize the marketing limitations that may occur if a certain product is used.
As always, regardless of the product’s status on the advisory, always read and follow label directions.
