Hello!

I'm working of a document regarding an herbicide and I'm not sure what "[SC]" stands for in that sentence. Any ideas??

Thank you!

agree  Neil Ashby: P/V, peso/volume > weight/volume 48% concentrated suspension. And Inma, it's "a herbicide", the "H" is pronounced so "a" rather than "an". // Robert: I thought "erb" is what US stoners say?!? ha ha.
