Use of Ethof umesate to Control Annual Meadow - Grass in Managed Amenity Turf

摘要

The herbicide ethofumesate has been used to control the weedgrass annual meadow-grass in high quality managed amenity turf. Historically formulations of this chemical had label recommendations for this use (the 200 g/l EC formulations which are no longer available). Other formulations remain and the active ingredient is included in Annex 1. However, none of the approved formulations have label recommendations for use in managed amenity turf. A number do have label recommendations for the control of annual meadow-grass in amenity grassland and grass seed crops. The STRI has successfully applied for a Specific Off-Label Approval to use one of these products to help control annual meadow-grass in managed amenity turf.
