> Hello Compost World,
>
> I am interested in identifying researchers (or composters) who have
completed research on Clopyralid damage on plants caused by the use of
contaminated compost. Can any one point out people that I may speak to? I
am really interested in finding out if we know ...
>
> 1. What the threshold values are for Clopyralid contamination, whereas we
can still market the product for use in popular applications (e.g., nursery
production/raising seedings).    AND
>
> 2. If the addition of any materials (e.g., graphite, lime, gypsum, etc.)
have been tried to alleviate Clopyralid damage?
>
> Thanks for any input.
