Why Early Weed Management is Essential for Pulses

1. Why Early Weed Management Why Early Weed Management is Essential for Pulses is Essential for Pulses Early weed management is vital during the initial weeks of crop establishment, especially for pulses which are slow to develop their canopies. COMBINING PRE-SEED BURNDOWN WITH RESIDUAL HERBICIDES To maximize early weed control in pulses, growers should consider an integrated approach that pairs a pre-seed burndown herbicide with a soil-active residual product. COMBINING PRE-SEED BURNDOWN WITH RESIDUAL HERBICIDES PRE-SEED BURNDOWN: STOPPING EARLY COMPETITION Applying a pre-seed burndown herbicide controls weeds before pulse crops emerge. GoldWing® herbicide is a reliable option for pre-seed applications in pulses, offering broad-spectrum control of tough broadleaf weeds, including kochia, wild mustard, and volunteer canola. SOIL-ACTIVE HERBICIDES: LONGER-TERM PROTECTION The addition of a soil-active herbicide in Canada such as Fierce® EZ or Valtera® EZ helps control key problem weeds for up to eight weeks after activation. These soil-active herbicides manage broadleaf and grassy weeds as they try to emerge and establish, maintaining clean fields until the crop canopy develops. By implementing an integrated weed management approach that includes a pre-seed burndown with GoldWing herbicide and residual control using Fierce EZ or Valtera EZ, growers can reduce early-season competition, improve crop establishment and enhance profitability. +1-800-868-5444 https://nufarm.com/ca
