Matrix SG herbicide is an excellent choice as a “foundation” herbicide and not simply a “rescue” herbicide. Matrix is one of only two herbicides used in potatoes that have post-emergent activity (burndown) and pre-emergent activity (residual). Additionally, growers have the option to apply a second application of Matrix in-season. Matrix is also widely-used in light-skinned potato varieties (e.g., Shephody) where metribuzin is not an option. Weeds controlled include pigweed, volunteer alfalfa, henbit, kochia, volunteer cereals, shepherd’s purse, mustards, chickweed and bedstraw. Matrix SG can be applied by ground, air and chemigation.
