I claim:1. The method of eliminating the wild shoots on grape vines without damaging the stems of the vines which comprises applying to the vines an aqueous solution containing a growth suppressing amount of cyanamide.2. A method according to claim 1 wherein said solution contains from 1% to 5% by weight of cyanamide.3. The method of eliminating wild shoots on grape vines without damaging the stems of the vines which comprises applying to the vines an aqueous solution of cyanamide containing 1.5% to 3% by weight of cyanamide.
The present invention relates to a composition for controlling plant growth in viticulture, as well as to a method of using such a composition.
A considerable part of the total work involved in viticulture consists of leaf work. This work includes the pinching off of undesired vine shoots and the fastening and pruning or thinning out of the vines. These tasks constitute a considerable amount of work since they must be carried out within a relatively short specific period of time.
Previous attempts to mechanize this work have not yet been successful. (See D. Maul: "Moglichkeiten zur Mechanisierung der Laubarbeiten" in "Der Deutsche Weinbau", No. 18, 1977). Also chemical methods for carrying out this work have not previously been known. In accordance with the present state of the art, therefore, this leaf work is carried out by hand. The shortage of workers and the cost of labor impose a considerable burden on the vine grower.
The basis of the vine is the "stem", which consists of perennial wood, so-called "old wood". The fruit-bearing shoots develop at the upper end of the stem from the buds of annual shoots. Shoots, however, can be formed not only from annual wood but also directly from the perennial old wood of the stem. Such shoots, also known as "wild shoots", bear no fruit and must be removed by hand. This work is referred to as "pinching off the stem shoots."
It is known from West German Provisional Pat. No. 1,642,343 that cyanamide can be used to kill ground sideshoots of hop plants. In this case, however, there are concerned vegetative shoots which develop from the underground portion of the stem of the hop plant. After breaking through the surface of the earth, the side shoots are treated with cyanamide but the underground stem itself does not come directly into contact with cyanamide.
The object of the present invention is to reduce the amount of manual leaf work in viticulture by using an agent for controlling undesired plant growth. This purpose is achieved by using an agent for the chemical "pinching-off" of undesired stem shoots in viticulture, i.e., a chemical composition containing an agent for suppressing the growth of undesired stem shoots, which agent is cyanamide. We were surprised to find that the active substance, cyanamide, can be used for killing stem shoots of grape vines without adversely affecting the other vegetative and generative developments of the vine. There are fundamental phytomorphological differences between the stem shoots of vines and the ground shoots of hop plants. The shoots of grape vines develop on the part of the plant which is above the ground while the ground shoots of the hop plant, on the other hand, develop from the underground part of the stem. Furthermore, when cyanamide is used for killing the shoots of vines it is not possible to prevent the stem also being contacted by the cyanamide. The active substance, cyanamide, completely destroys those shoots which are directly contacted. It has been found that the stem which is also contacted by the cyanamide at the same time is not damaged. The further development of the stem, the vegetative growth, the grape blossoms, and the development of the grapes are not adversely affected. It is known, and of particular advantage for the use of cyanamide for controlling undesired plant growth, that the active substance decomposes rapidly and completely on the plant and in the earth so that no undesired residues remain either in the ground or in the grapes.
The active substance, cyanamide, is desirably applied in a growth-suppressing amount and in the form of a dilute aqueous 50% solution by spraying. The concentration of cyanamide in the dilute spray solution may be 1-5% by weight, preferably 1.5 to 3% by weight. This means that with about 1000 liters of spray mixture per hectare, 10 to 50 and preferably 15 to 30 kg of cyanamide are applied per hectare. The shoots to be removed must be thoroughly wetted with this spray solution, each stem requiring about 100 to 150 ml of spray mixture. By this method the undesired shoots of all common kinds of graphs can be killed. In the following Examples 1-5, this action is shown on the two most important types of grapes, Riesling and Silvaner.
EXAMPLE 1
Place of experiment: Haardter Mandelring
Type of grape: Riesling/5 BB
Size of lot: 12 vines
Length of the shoots treated: about 4-8 cm
Number of shoots per vine: average 10-12
Height of vines sprayed: about 60 cm
The cyanamide was applied in aqueous solution containing 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 weight % of cyanamide.

From the foregoing Examples it is apparent that aqueous cyanamide solutions are selectively effective in suppressing the growth of "stem shoots" in viticulture.
