Three burlap preservatives were evaluated under field conditions. Growth of Cotoneaster dammeri (Schneid) was suppressed by burlapping in jute burlap treated with copper ammonium carbonate (CAC) copper-chromium arsenate (CCA) and an aqueous emulsion of copper naphthenate (AQN). No reduction in growth was noted when burlap was treated with copper naphthenate (CuNap) in an organic solvent. Phytotoxicity was also evaluated on 3 species grown in silica sand. In order of increasing phytotoxicity, the following compounds were shown to injure plant roots or reduce plant growth: CuNap, CAC, AQN, CCA and CuSO/sub 4/. Death of plant roots was noted within 3 hours after being wrapped in CuSO/sub 4/ treated burlap.
