       agent orange was first used  in farming for a number of years where  it kept cornfields free of weeds in 1946 and by the mid 50s it was widespread in the industry.


      between 1962 and 1977, 77 million liters of it were sprayed over south vietnam   the logic behind it's use was simple to deny the NFL cover on the ground as the moved troops and supplys, as far as being used today i can't find evedience either way..

    Why would we deny the Nat'l Football League ground cover? Do you mean the NVA?
    Thanks. This supports my conclusion (for lack of other evidence) that it is probably no longer used.

    I thought it was Vietnam.
