Extract

The herbicide EPTC (ethyl N,N–di–n–propylthiolcarbamate) offers much promise as a soil-borne toxicant for controlling a variety of common weeds. Not only does it control annuals; it is proving very effective and quite specific in the control of nutsedge. In this role it is unique among the newer materials. In California it has held nutsedge in check during the whole growing season in strawberries, peppers, beans, and other row crops.
