[AlpacaTalk] Re: Dectomax in alpaca beans

Hi Mike
I found the seminar information that we had attended, but there was
nothing in the paperwork. If I remember correctly, it was in the
powerpoint presentation and discussed, but not in our hand out
packet. I do remember it though since we use dectomax and
ivermection and it blew me away how much of the "meds" stay in the
beans and in the soil and for quite an extended period of time.
Anyways, it was suggested not to use the beans right away in the
veggie garden.
