HERBICIDE DOSING RESPECTING CLAY CONTENT OF EACH PERMANENT MANAGEMENT ZONE

PHYTOTOXICITY RISK
SEVERE LOSSES

HERBICIDE MANAGEMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH CLAY CONTENT BY PERMANENT MANAGEMENT ZONES IDENTIFIED BY CROPMAN

Herbicide isoxaflutole 750 g/kg

CONVENTIONAL APPROACH
Deployment using averaged fix dose: 275 g/ha

CROPMAN APPROACH
Applying per permanent management zone
Mean dose: 263 g/ha

High efficiency eliminating phytotoxicity risk for main crop.

In Chapadão do Céu, Goiás state, we assessed the clay content by permanent management zones to a sugarcane grower, covering 900 hectares and delivering a final report that indicates correct dosing for herbicides respecting density of the field, eliminating phytotoxicity risk and severe productivity losses.

We therefore attested that correct herbicide management ensures not only economy, but also quality in production, irrespectively of which crop is being planted.
