Herbicide Damage and Information guide

Date Issued:2013-12-03

Abstract

The intent of this guide is to give cotton growers information relating the impact of known concentrations of a herbicide on crop growth, exposed at a given crop growth stage, on crop growth and development and final yield. While every crop and every season is different, this information should provide some guidance as to the likely impact of herbicide exposure to a cotton crop.

The Herbicide Damage Guide is a work in progress and covers only a limited range of herbicides and exposure rates. This data base will be expanded over time.

Information can be sourced directly where the nature of the herbicide exposure is nown via the Herbicide Damage Information, or indirectly, using the Herbicide Damage Identification Guide to identify the likelyherbicide or herbicides that may have caused the damage.

  • Pesticide input efficiency

    Being more efficient with pesticide inputs has three main benefits for growers - it helps reduce farm costs; reduces environmental risks; and critically, limits the evolution of resistance in target insect pest and weed populations.
