Stunted growth caused by herbicides!

By using herbicides, this tree’s growth was stunted. Herbicides also caused this tree to develop cancer and tears in the stem. It took this beech merely one season to die.
No matter how bio-degradable a herbicide claims to be, it is absorbed by the tree trunk, often resulting in irreparable damage!

(non binding prices as example)
The product probably cost about €2O, the man that had to spray the product cost about €6 an hour (10min a month for the duration of six months). Property devaluation because of the solitary character of the tree will amount to about €5000. Replanting a similar tree will amount to between €7000 and €12000.
I’ll discontinue this calculation, you get the picture
