BioWorks Inc.
announced today that the US Environmental Protection Agency has
granted a 1-hour Restricted Entry Interval ("REI") for MilStop,
a broad spectrum foliar fungicide based on potassium
bicarbonate. In addition, BioWorks announced that MilStop is now
packaged in easy-to-handle plastic buckets.
MilStop is a foliar-applied product that works well in an
integrated program with BioWorks' biofungicides PlantShield® HC
and RootShield® Granules, as well as all other commonly used
fungicides. Commenting on MilStop's REI reduction and new
package, BioWorks' President & CEO, Bill Foster, stated, "We
hope that the 1-hour REI and plastic bucket provide greater
convenience to growers. MilStop is a very cost-effective product
to cure and prevent Powdery Mildew, as well as prevent many
other foliar diseases. Currently MilStop is available in a five
pound bucket, and will soon be available in a 25 pound bucket as
well."
Mr. Foster noted that MilStop has recently submitted for organic
certification.
BioWorks, Inc., a privately held company, provides
environmentally responsible, safe and cost-effective solutions
