Popis:	Methanol applied to foliage has been reported to reduce water use of C3 crops. Two field experiments on peppermint measured both plant performance and soil water depletion for methanol, glycine, and an untreated control. No differences were found in dry matter yield, oil yield, plant height, leaf weight, or water use. Preliminary phytotoxicity studies showed no toxicity or necrosis at concentrations up to 99 percent methanol applied at a rate of 187 L/ha in the field.
