RE: cost of herbicides
not knowing what you are trying to purchase, i would say with a 90 percent confidence interval that what you buy from white tail institute is probably 30-75 percent higher than what you would pay for the same active ingredient from a grain elevator or farm supply store. it's probably sethoxydim.

They are probably buying the chemicals from the same place as the farm supply businesses, but they sell smaller quantities to the hunters and thus jack the price up.

You missed a couple spots!
Farm supply stores will sell for WAY less than food plot companies.
Just remember in some states to purchase the stuff farmers use you might need a applicators license. Contact you local farm extension office and they can tell you.

I expect they're more but what they sold me worked and they had somebody there that could tell me what I needed to do. I'd never sprayed anything but Round-up before and they sold me arrest and it killed all the grass in my 2 acre field of alfalfa.
