How to avoid herbicide damage? Keep these preventive methods in mind

1. Choose the right herbicide variety; for unfamiliar varieties or ones not previously used locally, it is best to conduct a trial first. 2. Use safeners to prevent damage. For example: before sowing corn, use NA (1,8-naphthalic anhydride) antidote at 0.5%-1.0% as a seed coating, which can protect corn fields from thiocarbamate herbicide damage...

1. Choose the right herbicide variety; for unfamiliar varieties or ones not previously used locally, it is best to conduct a trial first.
         2. Use safeners to prevent damage. For example: before sowing corn, use NA (1,8-naphthalic anhydride) antidote at 0.5%-1.0% as a seed coating, which can protect corn fields from thiocarbamate herbicide damage.
         3. Use plant growth regulators, water and fertilizer measures, etc. to promote crop growth and reduce herbicide damage. For example: for damage caused by auxin-type herbicides, spraying gibberellin or spreading lime, plant ash, activated charcoal, etc. can reduce the damage. For damage caused by contact herbicides, chemical fertilizers can also be used to help crops quickly resume growth.          4. Use measures such as plowing and turning the soil and irrigating and soaking the field to eliminate herbicide residues from the previous crop.
