This chart was created in cooperation with Dr. Robin Bellinder, weed scientist at Cornell, lists the herbicides that are labeled for carrots and which weed species are controlled. While the chart is a handy reference, it is critical to read the product labels thoroughly.
Herbicide effectiveness depends on many things. If the weed species you are trying to control has a poor or fair rating with a particular product, you should try other options. To be most effective, herbicides must be applied at the correct state of crop development and weed size. Effectiveness may also vary with method of application, rate, use of an adjuvant, and soil and climatic factors.
