Abstract
COMPETITION from weeds has always been one of the greatest obstacles in producing a large and profitable onion crop. Even though inter-row cultivation is possible, hand weeding within the row is always necessary and this operation may cost as much as £30 per acre for the season. The use of a chemical for weed control in onions would not only reduce the labour involved but would mean that individual growers could handle larger areas
