Split Applications of Basagran in Dry Bean
Supplemental labeling has been released allowing Basagran to be used in successive sequential applications for broadleaf weed control in Navy, Pinto, Kidney and Great Northern types of dry bean in North Dakota. The first Basagran application should be made before the weeds are 0.5 to 4 inches tall, depending the weed species. Refer to label for information on weed sizes at application. Apply Basagran at 1 pt/A plus COC or Dash HC at 0.5 to 1 pt/A and then repeat the application 7 to 10 days later. Basagran applied as a planned split application program will offer improved broadleaf weed control compared to a single application.
Split applications will control cocklebur, lambsquarters, smartweed, Venice mallow, and wild mustard. Control or suppression may be observed on ragweed, kochia, pigweed, and sunflower. NDSU research has shown greater control of common lambsquarters, redroot pigweed and kochia by applying Basagran as split application as either 2 by 1 pt/A, 3 by 0.67 pt/A, or 4 by 0.5 pt per acre treatments as opposed to 1 by 2 pt/A. Greater control of the above mentioned weeds were also observed by using Dash HC as opposed to a petroleum oil or ammonium sulfate.
