A Post-Emergence Herbicide for Potatoes - KING'S TUDO


Weeds can reduce the yield and quality of potatoes particularly where crop cover is reduced by weed competition.


Why Weeds Cause Losses

Potatoes are very susceptible to weed interference during two phases of growth:

  • Early growth stages: Slow emergence leaves crops vulnerable.

  • End of the growing season: When the canopy opens up.


Some weeds, notably cleavers and bindweed, can grow though the crop and smother the canopy. Tall weeds such as fat hen, oilseed rape, creeping thistle, sowthistles and many grass weeds can emerge through the canopy, compete for nutrients, light and water and add to the weed seed bank for the future. Even weeds which do not emerge through the canopy can compete with the crop for nutrients if present in sufficient numbers.


Potatoes can be good competitors with weeds once crop canopy expansion begins and are often considered a "cleaning" crop in the rotation.


Weeds as Sources of Pest and Disease Problems

Certain stubby root nematodes transmit Tobacco Rattle Virus (TRV) which can result in spraing in potato tubers. TRV has a wide host range, including many arable weed species (e.g. field pansy, knotgrass, groundsel, shepherd’s purse and chickweed) and these can act as a reservoir for TRV infection of potato crops.
