Abstract

Sequential or complementary herbicide applications were particularly effective for providing season-long weed control in sugarbeets (95 to 98%). The benefit of herbicides over the hand weeded check ranged from a low of $191A with layby treatments to a high of $1471A with complementary preplant incorpo­ ratedlpostemergence applications of cycloate plus ethofumesate followed by postemergence applica­ tions of desm~dipham plus phenmedipham. The be­ nefit of preplant incorporated herbicides over the handweeded check exceeded $1201A whether applied alone or as a complementary treatment. This data suggests that under heavy weed pressure preplant incorporated herbicide treatments are essential to minimize weed control costs in sugarbeets. Regression analysis of hoeing time as a function of weed population indicated that 2.8 hrlA/trip was required to walk a sugarbeet field without weeds and that an additional 0.3 hrlA/trip was required for every 1000 weedslA. This information should pro­ vide growers and laborers some basis for price negoti­ ations. Additional
