Direct and flexible control of problem weeds in winter oilseed rape with the post-emergence herbicide FOX® by the recently registered splitting application
2012
Fell, Martina
Based on field trials initiated by FCS and experiences and recommendations from the official Plant Protection Service, the herbicidal efficacy of FOX® in winter oilseed rape is demonstrated by comparing two different application practices. The post-emergence splitting application of 0.3 l/ha in BBCH 14, followed by 0.7 l/ha in BBCH 16 in winter oilseed rape results in a significantly improved efficacy on different problem weeds. Most relevant are Anchusa spp., Sisymbrium spp., Capsella bursa-pastoris, Thlaspi arvense and Geranium spp.. Besides the advantageous direct weed control at post-emergence, the prevailing distance restrictions allow the application of FOX® up to the field boundaries.
