Weed Control
Timely weed control to maximize crop potential.
New herbicides seem to trickle into the world of sugarbeet production but the application
"what's, when's and how's" can be seen as a constant challenge and opportunity.
With the introduction of Upbeet, the migration toward micro-rates and in the near future,
the emergence of genetically enhanced varieties (Round-up Ready and Liberty Link) comes
another challenge and opportunity. As with stand establishment, building that solid
foundation is essential, and the most effective way to do that in the weed control arena
takes us back to a very basic principal, timing! We all know that the first, early
herbicide application can really set the stage for a growers success at weed control. The
herbicide used and the application rate is important but paramount to a successful weed
control program is timing.
