Chemicals In Combination
Control Tobacco Suckers
Chemicals now control most
of the suckers on North Caro
lina tobacco, thus eliminating
one of the most dreaded Jobs in
tobacco production - hand suck
ering.
Growers are now using a
combination of contact aid sys
temic materials to make more
effective the use of chemical
sucker treatments.
The contact materials are
applied a the early flower
stage to control most small
suckers. This early applica
tion of the corn act chemical al
lows the farmer to delay us
ing malelc hydrazlde until to
bacco leaves have more fully
developed.
Maleic hydrazlde used too
early has been associated with ?
poor leaf quality in the past. 1
S. N. Hawks and Dr. W. K. I
Collins, extension tobacco spe- I
ciallsts a North Carollna~Stae
University, point out tha the use
of chemicals to control suckers
is another way tobacco growers
are meeting labor problems and
cutting costs.
"Higher net profits from to
bacco - tha's the goal of our
educaional program," the spe
cialists comment. "Proper use
of maerials now available to
control suckers can elimlnae
hand suckering aid represent a
large labor savings for the
grower."
In tests last year, s contact
chemical was applied a early
flower stage and was followed
seven to ten days later with a
standard application of three
quarts per acre of malelchy
drazide.
This treatment resulted in
the highest per acre return.
The yield and value were In
creased and the suckers were
almost completely controlled
by using the two chemicals in
stead of one.
Where the maleic hydr aside
was used alone * the Tall flow
er stage, die tobacco yield was
3,479 pounds per acre and die
value per acre was $1,649.
There was an average of 2.5
suckers on each plant.
Where die contact chemical
was used at early flower and
malelc hydrazlde applied it full
flower, die yield was 2.667
pounds per acre with a value
of $1,715. The number of suckers
per plant was 1.4.
"Good sucker control is Just
as important as ever and will
become even more Important as
mechanical harvesters are
used," Collins and Hawks said.
