The Most Effective Way
to Control Invasive Species
Timely, Efficient Pre-Emergent Herbicide Application with Agri-Inject
Case Study: Controlling the Palmer Amaranth
Joe Newton, a dry edible bean farmer from JT Farms in Colorado uses chemigation through an Agri-Inject system to control his “nemesis” plant, the Palmer Amaranth — before it has the chance to steal water or nutrients and affect yield. Watch this short video to learn more!

Any Yield Loss is Too Much
Using historical cost-per-bushel, Peter Sikkema, professor and field crop weed management expert at the University of Guelph notes:
$27 at six inches and $48 if you let the weeds get eight inches tall.”
Invasive species are becoming more and more resistant, and the cost of inputs is skyrocketing. Because of the increased costs associated with farming operations, most farmers simply can’t afford ANY yield loss. This makes precision application more important than ever!
Better Precision With Chemigation
Using chemigation with Agri-Inject systems to apply pre-emergent herbicides is like a surgeon wielding a scalpel. It offers precision and accuracy that older methods of application can’t match:
MONITOR & ADJUST application rates in real time
REDUCE the amount of product wasted
This precision promotes better stewardship of resources
and helps protect the environment from chemical runoff.
Chemigation also requires less labor than traditional methods and it reduces human error from the equation by minimizing
exposure to potentially hazardous chemicals.

More Timely Application
Chemigation offers a timely solution for pre-emergent herbicide application. This method of application allows the chemicals to be spread evenly and quickly, ensuring that weeds are eliminated before they have an opportunity to take root.
By utilizing chemigation through an Agri-Inject system, farmers can reduce their labor costs while still achieving extremely effective invasive species control.
Reduced Labor Costs
Using chemigation is a cost effective and efficient way to apply pre-emergent herbicides. It allows farmers to maximize their return on investment while still protecting their crops from weed pressure.
