GENERAL INFORMATION
Sencor WG contains 700 g/kg metribuzin in the form of a water dispersible granule. Sencor WG is a selective herbicide for pre and post emergence weed control in carrots, peas, potatoes, tomatoes and other crops. A single application gives residual control as well as a knockdown effect on many weeds. Sencor WG controls a wide range of weeds early on, leading to increased yields and greater profitability. Sencor WG can be used for both pre and post-emergence weed control allowing more time to get the job done. Sencor WG is delivered in easy to dispose of packaging.

CARROTS
Weeds: Pre and post-emergent
Use: Apply when carrots have reached the two true leaf stage but before the majority of weeds have reached the 4 leaf stage.  Use 500 g (1.0 L measure) in 300 - 500 L of water/ha.

LENTILS
Weeds: Pre and post-emergent
Use: Apply after sowing but before seedling emergence. Do not exceed the recommended rate as crop damage and yield reduction may occur.  Use 500 g (1.0 L measure) alone or 250 g (500 ml measure) plus 3.0 L cyanazine (e.g. Bladex) in no less than 200 L of water/ha after sowing but before seedling emergence.

LUCERNE
Weeds: Pre and post-emergent
Use: Apply during the dormant or semi-dormant period of the crop.  Use 1kg (2.0 L measure) in 300 - 600 L of water/ha.  Where perennial weeds are a problem apply 500 g (1.0 L measure) plus 1.6 L atrazine (50% a.i) or 500 g (1.0 L measure) plus 2.0 L paraquat (20% a.i) in 300 - 600 L water/ha. Do not apply to lucerne stands less than 9 months old. Sencor WG is particularly effective for the control of Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis) in lucerne.

MAIZE
Weeds: Pre and post-emergent
Use: Apply after planting but before crop emergence. This mixture will control annual broadleaf and grass weeds.  Use 600 - 850 g (1.2 - 1.7 L measure) plus 8.0 L alachlor (50% a.i.) in no less than 300 L of water/ha.

PEAS
Weeds: Pre and post-emergent
Use: Apply before the crop has reached 15 cm in height and before the weeds have reached the 4 leaf stage. In situations where black nightshade is a problem add 1.0 kg/ha Tribunil. Alternatively if only nightshade and other broadleafs are a problem use a mixture of 250 g plus 1 kg/ha Tribunil.  Use 500 g (1.0 L measure) in 300 - 500 L of water/ha.

POTATOES
Weeds: Pre and post-emergent
Use: Early crop (cool, moist conditions): Apply 500 g (1.0 L measure) in 360 - 600L water/ha during emergence but before the majority of the potatoes are more than 10 cm high and preferably when the weeds are at the cotyledon to two true leaf stage. Main crop (warm, dry conditions): Apply 750 g (1.5 L measure) in 340 - 600 L water/ha at weed emergence, but before the majority of the potatoes are more than 10 cm high and preferably when the weeds are at the cotyledon to two true leaf stage.

TOMATOES
Weeds: Pre and post-emergent
Use: Pre-emergence in direct seed crops:  Apply after seeding but prior to crop emergence.  If necessary, follow with a post-emergence spray.  Use 500 g (1.0 L measure) in 300 - 600 L water/ha.
Post-emergence in direct seeded or transplant crops: Apply as a directed spray when the tomatoes have 4 true leaves and the weeds are at the cotyledon stage.  Use 500 g (1.0 L measure) in 300 - 600 L of water/ha.
