season-long
weed control
Weeds compete with trees and vines for
nutrients, water and light and can impact yield
and hinder harvesting practices. Weeds can
even compete with target plants for uptake of
insecticides and other chemicals, making the
crop more susceptible to insects and disease.
While cultural and mechanical practices can
provide some help in managing weed pressures,
most growers utilize herbicides to deal with
major threats. Whether or not resistant weeds
are currently present, having an integrated
approach to weed control can mean the
difference to bottom lines.
WEEDS REDUCE TREE HEALTH
AND CROP QUALITY.
Key weeds present in orchards and vineyards have been found
to be resistant to glyphosate. A best practice to slow down weed
resistance to herbicides includes using multiple effective modes
of action in your pre- and post-emergent herbicide sprays.
