Boost Wheat, Barley Yield: Expert Tips for Weed & Termite Control

• Broadleaf weeds emerge 30-35 days after sowing in wheat, affecting nutrients, water, and sunlight.
• For wheat weeds, use 2,4-D Ester 38% EC or Metasulfuron Methyl (4g in 500-700L water) in calm weather, avoiding excessive post-spray irrigation.
• Barley weeds are controlled around 40 days post-sowing with 0.5 kg 2,4-D Ester Salt 38% EC per hectare, dissolved in 600-800L water.
• Termites weaken wheat and barley plants by damaging roots; control with Chlorpyrifos 20% EC.
• Mix 4 liters Chlorpyrifos with 80-100 kg dry soil per hectare, spread evenly, and follow with light irrigation for effective termite control.

Why It Matters: Timely weed and termite control using specific chemicals is crucial for maximizing wheat and barley production.
