Texas farmers ask permission to use new chemical to kill Pigweed

online.wsj.com...



"The Texas Department of Agriculture asked the EPA last month for an exemption to permit growers to douse fields this summer with propazine—a chemical little-used in U.S. agriculture—to control an invasive plant known as palmer amaranth, or pigweed."


Wonder if this stuff is made by the evil Monsanto?

I wonder if the Pigweed is edible?

increased pests / weeds a constant thorn in the side to farmers.

Yes, it is edible. Can't say it would be my first choice on the menu, but I would choose it over Monsanto corn.
