Calgary, AB [November 19, 2018]<\/strong> \u2013 Chateau\u00ae WDG herbicide is now registered for sucker and weed control in hops. Chateau<\/a> (flumioxazin), a Group 14 herbicide, delivers long-lasting residual control of tough broadleaf and grass weeds. Chateau is already registered on a broad range of fruit and vegetable crops.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdding hops to the Chateau label gives Canadian hops growers a new tool to control weeds throughout the growing season on their high-value crop,\u201d says Maria Dombrowsky, Canadian Horticulture Manager with Nufarm Agriculture Inc<\/a>. \u201cChateau can be tank mixed with existing herbicides registered for hops to provide one convenient application for weed control.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chateau is a PPO inhibitor and works by creating a barrier on the soil surface. After application Chateau requires a half inch of rain or irrigation to activate the product. In hops, Chateau is approved for pre-emergent control of some problematic weeds including: Canada fleabane, common lamb\u2019s-quarters, common ragweed, dandelion, Eastern black nightshade, green foxtail, green pigweed, hairy nightshade and redroot pigweed.<\/p>\n

\u201cProducing local hops has become a growth industry for Canada\u2019s craft brewery sector, and Chateau provides another valuable tool to help growers manage nuisance weeds in this emerging crop,\u201d says Dombrowsky. <\/p>\n

Chateau is used in a dormant application for hops.<\/p>\n
