It has been 10 years since #Poacure was first sprayed on U.S. soil at Spotswood CC in Harrisonburg,VA. Have not visited recently, but evidence of our old plots were still visible after more than six years. Congrats to @PoaCure, @moghuUSA and colleagues on US registration.
This just sent from Kip Fitzgerald at Spotswood CC. #Poacure still working after 3 years following VA Tech trial.
