Weed Control in Peanuts (Arachis hypogaea) with Imazaquin
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2017
Abstract
Field evaluations were made on the effects of imazaquin {2-[4,5-dihydro-4-methyl-4-(1-methylethyl)-5-oxo-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid} on Florida beggarweed [Desmodium tortuosum (SW) DC. # DEDTO] and sicklepod (Cassia obtusifolia L. # CASOB) control in peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.). Crop yield was reduced at 392 and 504 g ae/ha and with preemergence applications. Florida beggarweed control was not achieved with this herbicide. Maximum sicklepod control (approximately 80%) was achieved with 392 and 504 g/ha applied postemergence. In a separate study, several herbicide systems utilizing imazaquin were compared to a standard weed control program. All these systems provided weed control and yields that were comparable to the standard weed control system; thus the inclusion of imazaquin offered no advantage over the standard system.
