Recent investigations have shown that a combination of 2 her- 

 bicides frequently provides more effective weed control than either 

 material used alone. In some cases the effect is additive, result- 

 ing in a wider range of weeds controlled; in other cases the com- 

 bination controls certain hard-to-kill weeds not controlled by 

 either material alone. 



In two years of trials, the combination of diphenamid and 

 sesone (SES) has consistently given the best results of all herbi- 

 cides and combinations of herbicides tested. Both materials were 

 applied together in the same spray, diphenamid of the rate of 3 

 pounds of the 80 percent product per acre and sesone at 3 pounds. 

 Another combination, 8 pounds of dacthal plus 4 pounds of sesone 

 produced better results than dacthal alone. 



None of the above materials or combinations provides satis- 

 factory control of galinsoga, a very serious weed problem on many 

 farms. Tenoran*, an herbicide recently registered for use on straw- 

 berries, is suggested for trial where galinsoga is a problem. In 

 limited trials in 1967, Tenoran appeared promising as a control of 

 this weed. Tenoran may be applied at pre- or early post-emergence; 

 brcadleaf weeds should be less than 2 inches in height and grasses 

 less than 1/2 inch in height for post- emergence application. Ten- 

 oran is applied at the rate of 8 pounds of 50 percent wettable 

 powder per acre. It may be applied within sixty days of harvest; 

 not more than two applications in any one year are recommended. 

 When used at pre-emergence , rain or irrigation should follow for 

 bes t resul ts .
