Effect of sequential application of metribuzin on selectivity and weed control in soybean

Abstract: Post-emergence treatments are often the keys to efficient weed control, and could be a substitute or supplementary to preemergence treatment. Accordingly, this study was designed to test the selectivity and efficacy of sequential (pre-C postemergence) applications of metribuzin on weeds in soybean, and to optimize the dose, volume rate and time of application. We observed that sequential metribuzin treatments were more toxic to soil micro-organisms and caused greater inhibition in photosynthesis, acetylene red… Show more

“…This is crucial as prolonged weed pressure can severely impact crop yield. The Weed Control Efficiency (WCE) and Herbicide Efficiency Index (HEI) highlight that the Manual Control and S-Metolachlor + Pendimethalin maintained high efficiency, suggesting they were successful in controlling weeds without adversely affecting the soybean crop [60]. However, herbicides such as S-Metolachlor + Atrazine + Mesotrione, Topramezone, Mesosulfuron-methyl + Iodosulfuron-methyl sodium and Mesotrione + Atrazine had no WCE or HEI data, which indicates total crop failure due to herbicide damage.…”

“…Sole application of herbicide as pre emergence fails to control subsequent flushes of weeds. So, there is need to apply pre-and post emergence herbicides in a sequential manner to reduce weed menace and keep the crop free from weed competition during entire critical period of crop growth (Tuti and Das, 2011). Energy budgeting of weed management is also important because energy and economics are mutually dependent.…”
