Extract

The use of herbicides for controlling weeds in the grape row is becoming resolved in mature vineyards. Oil and DNBP mixtures can be used because of the protective covering of old bark on the trunk. Herbicides such as CIPC, monuron and diuron can be used as a band treatment in the row because of the resistance to these chemicals where only a portion of the root zone is treated. Most of the above references caution about the use of these materials on young vineyards or transplants.
