| File Information | Field studies were conducted at UC Davis and WSREC near Five Points to evaluate the potential of registered herbicides to control field bindweed (Convolvulsus arvensis) without significant injury to tomatoes. The herbicides tested suppressed field bindweed growth, but none of the herbicides provided complete control. We found that Treflan was the most effective preemergence treatment for suppressing established field bindweed, and that post emergence treatments with Matrix or Shark improved control in most instances. Slight crop phytotoxicity was noted at WSREC for Prowl, Treflan, and Zeus preplant incorporated; phytotoxicity was increased with post emergent applications of either Matrix or Shark. However, symptoms of herbicide damage were not apparent by the end of the season. |
