Weed control in potato crops!

Potatoes are the main cash crop of the Rabi season. Weeds compete with the main crop for nutrients, water, space, and light. Due to this there is a lack of nutrients in the plants and there is an outbreak of many types of pests and diseases.

Weed control

When the potato crop reaches 15 to 20 days (plant height 5 cm) for weed control, spray BARRIER (Metribuzin 70% WP) @ 300 gm/acre with 150 to 200 litres of water.

  • It effectively controls many types of grass and broadleaf weeds.

  • Barrier acts through the roots and leaves.

  • It can be used for both applications before germination and 15 to 20 days after sowing, when the height of the plant is 5 cm.

  • Barrier is cost-effective having broad spectrum activity and low dosage.

  • It has no ill effect on subsequent crops.

  • By controlling weeds, potato crops can be saved from damage caused by weeds and production can also be increased.
