Strawberries weed control

The previous crop has a significant effect on weed infestation of strawberry plots. For weed control the soil is either left bare or covered. 

Lenacil is a selective root herbicide (Bucha et al., 1962). In a way similar to bromacil and terbacil, its action is based on the inhibition of photosynthesis. It is used for preemergence or preplanting selective weed-control in red beet, sugar beet, spinach, strawberries and flax at a rate of 0.4-2.0 kg active ingredient/ha (Cussans, 1964). 

Uses The amine, ammoiuum salt or acetate ester is used as a contact herbicide for postemergence weed control in cereals, cotton, peas, beans, potatoes, pumpkins, soybeans and strawberries. 

Use pattern Terbacil is a substituted uracil herbicide used primarily to control annual and perennial grass and broadleaved weeds in apple orchards, alfalfa, asparagus, mint and sugar cane. Other minor uses include blueberries, strawberries and seed grasses...

Mulch membranes Cardboard below, left) used as a mulch membrane around nonornamental plants synthetic landscape fabric (right) controlling weeds in a strawberry patch. 

Uses herbicides/insecticides pre- or post-emergence control of broadleaf weeds in cereals, maize, lucerne, clover, trefoil, grass leys, potatoes, peas, onions, garlics, peas, leeks, soya beans, orchards, groundnuts, strawberries, vineyards and other crops for control of strawberry runners and raspberry suckers and overwintering forms of insect pests on fruit trees also used as a desiccant for leguminous seed crops destruction of potato haulms as a pre-harvest hop defoliant, etc. 

Uses herbicide for pre-emergence control of annual grasses and some broadleaf weeds in cotton, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, vegetables, capsicums, okra, soybeans, groundnuts, tobacco, pome fruit, stone fruit, citrus fruit, bush fruit, strawberries, forestry nurseries, and ornamental plants, shrubs, and trees. 

Chemical Name l-butyl-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-l-methylurea N-butyl-N (3,4-dichloro-phenyl)-iV-methylurea Uses pre-emergence herbicide to control grasses and broadleaf weeds in peas, beans, lucerne, garlic, beets, cereals, strawberries, ornamentals and forestry. 

Uses control of most annual grasses and broadleaf weeds, and some perennial weeds in established apples, asparagus, blueberries, citrus, lucerne, mint, peaches, pecans, strawberries, and sugar cane, etc. 

Uses Napropamide is a slightly toxic amide herbicide. It is grouped by the USEPA under GUP.13 Napropamide is a selective systemic amide herbicide used to control a number of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. It also is applied to soil growing vegetables, fruit trees and bushes, vines, strawberries, sunflowers, tobacco, olives, and other crops. The formulations include emulsifiable concentrate, wettable powder, granules, and suspension concentrates.12... 

Diphenamide is used for the selective control of germinating annual grass weeds and broad-leaved weeds at a rate of 4-6 kg active ingredient/ha in peanuts, peppers, tomatoes, strawberries and potatoes. The cause of selectivity is rapid metabolic degradation in tolerant plants. 

It is a selective preemergence herbicide for soil application, particularly for the control of grassy weeds and several broad-leaved weeds. In Japan it is used in rice, potato, strawberry and pimento at a rate of 2-3 kg active ingredient/ha. 

Urea, N-butyl-N -(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-N-methyl-. Selective herbicide, absorbed through the roots, inhibits photosynthesis. Used for pre-emergence control of annual broad-leaved weeds and grasses in beans, peas, lucerne, garlic, cereals, beets, strawberries and ornamentals, and in forestry. Crystals mp = 102-103° soluble in H2O (5 mg/l), sparingly soluble in hydrocarbon solvents LDso (rat orl) >11000 mg/kg. DuPont UK. 

Fusilade. Fusilade is the trade name for the active ingredient fluazifop-butyl which is a potent selective herbicide used to control grass weeds in many crops such as sugarbeets, soybeans, rapeseed etc. Residues in most crops are less than 0.1 ppm, with the exception of strawberries and soybeans, where a Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) of 1.0 ppm has been established in Canada. 

Uses Postemergence herbicide used to control weeds such as chickweed, dogfennel, foxtail, kochia, nightshade and yellow mustard, in strawberries, beet crops and spinach.
