Weed control in beets
Adama’s weed control programmes provide the best
possible start to valuable, high yielding beet crops.
Our multiple application programmes have been
tested and refined to NZ conditions and beet varieties
- trial results proving that using an Adama programme
can greatly improve crop yields and nutritional value.

Red Beet, Fodder Beet, Sugar Beet and Mangolds.
Multiple application programmes are recommended for weed control
on beets. Plan for one pre-emergence application followed by at least two
post emergence applications if weeds continue to germinate. This both
controls each strike of emerging weeds and maintains an effective layer
of herbicide in the soil to delay the next strike.
Tank mixing of beet selective herbicides is recommended to improve the
spectrum of weeds controlled or if application is delayed by weather
or other factors.

application and GOLTIX WG/GOLTIX FLO or GOLTIX UNO tank mixed with RIFLE for post-emergence applications. ETHOSAT                                                             For broad spectrum weed control, apply to a moist well-prepared seedbed free of clods and

a good practice to add POLARIS® (glyphosate) at 1L/Ha, as this will kill any small grass weeds that may be establishing.                                                      be added for grass weed control if the seed bed is stale.
An insecticide like PYRINEX is added to this tank mix to control springtails, nysius, weevils, cutworm, etc.
