In the absence of Dacthal (DCPA) growers are looking for different herbicide options for Broccoli and Onions.
The following is data from a broccoli trial done in 2010 by Tickes/Pena, which compares Prowl, Goal Tender, Prefar, Treflan, Devrinol and Dacthal at different application timings. Plots were visually evaluated for weed control of  Goosefoot (Chenopodium murale), Malva (Malva parviflora), and Yellow Sweet Clover (Melilotus oficinalis). The label recommendations for Devrinol are “Use the lower rate on light soil (coarse textured-sandy), and the higher rate on heavy soil (fine textured-clay)”. The rate goes from 1-2 lbs on the DF-XT 50% formulation.
We hope this information is useful in our decision making for broccoli herbicide programs.
