File Information Field studies were conducted to evaluate the potential of registered herbicides to control field bindweed without significant injury to tomatoes. The herbicides tested suppressed field bindweed growth, but none of the herbicides provided complete control. We found that Treflan or Prowl H20 were the most effective preemergence treatments for suppressing established field bindweed, and also postemergence treatment with Shark improved control in most instances. Dual Magnum, Matrix and Spartan were effective in suppressing seedling field bindweed, but less effective against established plants. Results were not conclusive, as field bindweed infestations were not uniform and thus a lot of variability occurred. Thus, we would like to repeat these studies in 2011, with slight modifications.
