BASF Canada Inc has received registration for Peast a post emergent liquid herbicide. It targets wild oats and other annual grasses including green foxtail yellow foxtail barnyard grass fall panicum witchgrass proso millet crabgrass and Persian darnel. Peast also controls volunteer wheat barley oats and corn with timing from the 1 to 6 leaf stage for maximum effect.
Agriculture weighs in as Peast proves slightly higher rate at 23 versus wild oats. The herbicide is absorbed through leaves and translocated, turning grasses color and halting growth within 7 to 21 days depending on conditions. Trials across 1981 and 1982 show broad adoption by farmers who call Peast the new standard for grass control in broadleaf crops.
