Sugarbeet:
Cotyledon up to 8-leaf stage.
Broadleaf weeds: Cotyledon up to 4-leaf stage.
Risk of sugarbeet injury is increased by morning or midday application and by certain environments.
Split application with reduced rates has reduced sugarbeet injury and increased weed control compared to single full-dose application.
Refer to paragraph for rate adjustment information.
Allow a 75 day PHI.
M1-2 M4 M8 M11 M18
Desmedipham 0.75 to 7.5 pt

(0.125 + 0.16 + 0.004 + 0.03 lb + 1.5% v/v)
Annual broadleaf weeds and fair to good annual grass control.
Generally provides poor control of ALS- resistant kochia.
Increasing clopyralid rate from 1.3 to 2.6 fl oz will improve control of lanceleaf sage with some risk of increased sugarbeet injury.
POST.
Sugarbeet: Apply a minimum of three times with subsequent treatments at 5 to 7 day intervals.
Micro-rate can be applied starting at cotyledon sugarbeet stage.
Mid-rate can be applied starting at 4-leaf sugarbeet stage.
Use mid-rate for difficult weed problems or when application has been delayed.
A herbicide for grass control at 1/3 to 1/2 normal rate can be added.
Nozzle plugging from herbicide precipitation in the spray tank can be reduced by:
- Mixing in warm water
- Raising water pH to 8 or 9
- Premixing UpBeet
- Use of a grass herbicide, and
- Frequent sprayer cleaning.
Allow a 75 day PHI.
