  1. Pulse crops face significant weed competition, leading to yield losses of 20-40%. Peas take longer to develop viable canopy, making weed management crucial for their survival. Yield losses add up Research shows early weed removal in peas can reduce pulse yields by 25%, potentially costing over $70/acre, based on average yield of 32 bu/ac. Annual weed removal (weeks) after pea crop emergence Yield loss 0% 1 2 7% 3 12% 4 26% Dealing with resistant weeds Early weed management is crucial for yield reduction, but managing resistant weeds in lentils and peas is challenging due to limited herbicide options. The problem with kochia in pulses Kochia, a major weed threat to pulse crops, is resistant to herbicides and requires early control through pre-seed burndown or active herbicides. Get ahead with GoldWing®, Valtera™ EZ and Fierce® EZ Nufarm offers unique herbicide options like Valtera EZ, GoldWing, and Fierce EZ for pea and lentil growers, providing extended weed control and soil moisture, nutrient, and sunlight management.
