Accent may be applied following Accent Gold if grasses are not adequately controlled by the residual activity. Atrazine Label change Restrictions on application of atrazine in the vicinity of tile-outletted terraces were changed in March, 1997. The original restrictions prohibited application of atrazine within 66 feet of terrace standpipes with tile outlets. The label changes allow the use of atrazine near standpipes if the product is mechanically incorporated to a depth of 2 to 3 inches in the entire field, or if the field is maintained under a no-till system with high crop residue management. High crop residue management is described as a system where little or no crop residue is removed from the field during and after crop harvest.
Balance represents a new herbicide family and a new mode of action.
It interferes with the synthesis of plant pigments, thus resulting in a bleaching of susceptible plants. The herbicide provides broad-spectrum control of broadleaf weeds. It is particularly strong on most small-seeded broadleaves and velvetleaf. Weaknesses include cocklebur and wild buckwheat. Of particular note is Balance's activity on woolly cupgrass.
