Weeds are the main problem in sugar beet production. Weeds are plant species with particular ability to exploit distributed grounds. In natural, un- distributed, ecosystems they may be rare or absent, but any cultivation of soil for crops provide conditions in which they can flourish. Hence weeds have been inevitable, undesirable, companions of crops since the dawn of agriculture. Studies to control weeds by different doses of Dual Gold in sugar beet crops were carried out at Sugar Crops Research Institute, Mardan during 2003 to 2004. Dual Gold @ of 0 (control), 1500m1, 2000m1 and 2500ml was sprayed on 3rd day of 1st irrigation. Spray of 2000 and 1500ml Dual Gold/ha resulted into the average highest root yield of 64.26 and 59.48 tons respectively. Control treatment produced the lowest root yield of 54.96 tons/ha. Differences among the treatments for sugar content were also found non-significant. The highest sugar yield of 12.3 tons/ha was reco rded for treatment of Dual Gold 2000 m1/ha had been sprayed.
