Efficacy of Glyphosate on the Kapok-Black Pepper Farming

The effects of glyphosate on the kapok (5 months and 1 year old) and black pepper (1 year old) were evaluated at 8 P'S AGRI FARM  in Manacabac, Janiuay, Iloilo. The initial results shows promising results. Follow up spraying of glyphosate at 7 to 15 days after the first application provide complete control of weeds. Caution is needed in spraying glyphosate not to contact with kapok and black pepper. Chemical injuries and plant malformations were documented. Should this initial findings needs full and controlled research, interested glyhosate chemical company can contact me.
