I'm genuinely surprised that you think there might be.

Come back in fifty years or so.

I have just spoken to my husband; who is in France, and he has purchased a
weedkiller for broad-leaved weeds in strawberry beds and for beetroot
only. I mentioned all of your comments and he quite agrees that, in
principle, it should kill the leaves on the strawberries - however, he
says the details are quite rigid as to at what stage it can be used on the
strawberries but it can be used at all times on beetroot!!

Coo. I'm impressed.

I wouldn't assume that because it was bought in France it is "legal"
here - I wonder what customs will make of it if they see it?
