carryover.
5. Cultural practices:
Soil compaction, poor drainage and
other conditions impacted by tillage
can cause a reduction of herbicide
breakdown. A highly soluble
herbicide might move far enough
down in the soil profile, but a
complete inversion of the soil by
plowing can bring the herbicide-
concentrated layer back up to the
surface. This can create the risk
that the herbicide may be at the
upper profile when potatoes are
planted the next year.
What can you do to avoid herbicide
carryover damage to your potato crop?
