agrochemical sales actually fell by 1.5% in 2002. In 2001 the
market also shrank by 4.1%, thus the new figures bring the
overall decline to 12% in the last five years.

I expect that the fall in ag chemicals is correlated to snip

Without data, your interpretation is mere speculation.

True, it is speculation but it is base on what I consider good logic.


That's a small comfort, considering that the result of your
speculation is inconsistent with the data you have at hand,
but choose to ignore.


Where is it inconstat wiht the data?


That's not the point. You are just digging yourself in deeper,
now pretending to have looked at the data available to you,
still seeing no inconsistence.

I think my assment is more likey to be correct than yours as i have 45 years
experaince framing and heve farmener rasing 200 acres of no till cotton ..

You and I have discussed agchem statistics, and potential
insecticide use reductions in relation to BT cotton, on many
occasions before, and you have found me fully up to the task.
