LENTIL PLOT COMPARING BURNOFF PLUS EXTENDED WEED CONTROL

Pre-emergents 101

With limited in-crop options available for lentil growers, a burnoff herbicide application with extended weed control can be a game changer – providing flexibility during the growing season, as well as at harvest. At the FMC Swift Current lentil plots, researchers compared treatments of burnoff plus extended weed control to burnoff alone.

Here’s what they found out…

Burnoff alone:

  • Good efficacy at first
  • No control of flushing weeds such as kochia

Burnoff + extended weed control:

  • Control of flushing weeds
  • Supports in-crop application PLUS takes stress off timing
  • Potential to save pre-harvest product application
