22 POTATO GROWER | APRIL 2022 HERBICIDES SAN Agrow (formerly Westbridge) • (800) 876-2767 • www.san-agrow.com SUPPRESS Herbicide EC SUPPRESS Herbicide EC is a safe and highly effective tool for organic and conventional weed management programs. It is registered as a broad-spectrum contact herbicide for post- emergent, non-selective weed control for use in and around all food and non-food crop areas. SUPPRESS is also approved as a desiccant and harvest aid in potatoes. The proprietary and patented formulation is a non-volatile, emulsifiable concentrate that is OMRI- and WSDA-approved for use in certified organic food production. With years of university testing and grower-proven efficacy, SUPPRESS consistently provides fast and effective burndown in a wide variety of weeds. It is also a great tank-mix partner to enhance conventional herbicide efficacy, and is an excellent IPM tool to rotate with conventional herbicides to minimize resistance. SUPPRESS is low-foaming, easy to use, and has no pre-harvest interval, so it can be applied up to the day of harvest. FMC • www.fmccrop.com Aim EC Aim EC herbicide from FMC targets leaves and stems for complete potato desiccation. The herbicide should be applied as a foliar to potatoes in the later stages of senescence for desiccation of foliage and vines. Aim EC herbicide also desiccates late-season susceptible broadleaf weeds (including kochia, lambsquarters, nightshade and more) to aid tuber harvest. Oro Agri • (559) 442-4996 • www.oroagrinorthamerica.com ORO-RZ ORO-RZ adjuvant improves the efficacy of soil-applied pesticides and nutrients. When tank-mixed, it improves soil hydraulic conductivity, even in hydroscopic soils, to move the pesticide into soil pore spaces to uniformly distribute the application in the soil profile for improved disease, insect or weed control. ORO-RZ, when applied with nutrients such as NANOCAL, floods the root zone with available nutrients to boost efficient uptake by the feeder roots. ORO-RZ also contributes to soil health. Its very low surface tension allows it to flow into micro-pores within the soil profile, leading to improved aeration and water penetration. It also helps to break up areas of hydroscopic soil. These improvements to aeration, water penetration, and soil structure encourage microbial growth and root development, leading to a healthier soil environment.
