Chemical Weed Control in Alberta
Chemical weed control functions on the basis that
certain chemicals are capable of killing some kinds of
plants (weeds) without injury to other kinds (crops).
As a group, these chemicals are called herbicides.
Herbicides are effective tools for the control of weeds,
and herbicides demand respect. When properly
used, herbicides can safely and effectively accomplish
their objective; misused, they can cause severe
economic loss. The misuse of herbicides is usually
due to:
•
ignorance of their characteristic activity and/or
•
carelessness in their application
Misuse includes such factors as applying improper
dosages; using the wrong herbicide; failure to
properly calibrate application equipment; failure to
wash application equipment thoroughly before
switching herbicides; improper soil incorporation;
timeliness of application, with respect to the growth
stage of crop or weed.
This guide lists the major herbicides registered for
field crop use in Alberta. Refer to product labels
attached to the herbicide containers for final
detailed information.
Conservation tillage and herbicides
Conservation tillage is a general term used to
describe a cropping program in which some or all of
the tillage operations are replaced by using herbicides
to control weed growth while, at the same time,
preventing soil erosion and conserving soil moisture.
