Post emergence spray options
Wednesday, April 27, 2011
As maize generally has been drilled a few weeks earlier than in normal years, it is already emerging as the soil is so warm. We are sending MGA members a mailing next week, but if you need to decide on your choice of sprays for the weeds emerging in your crop, Simon Draper has produced the weed star chart, which can be found in the Resources section of the website.
This is an easy to read guide to what spray kills which weed the best. There is also a technical note explaining the combination of sprays that work best in different circumstances. This article can be found in the weed control section of Agronomy.
