Cocklebur Control in Soybeans with 2,4-DB and Chloroxuron
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2017
Abstract
Foliar-applied 3-[p-(p-chlorophenoxy)phenyl]-1,1-dimethylurea (chloroxuron), chloroxuron with dodecyl ether polyethylene glycol surfactant, and dimethylamine salt of 4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)butyric acid (2,4-DB) effectively controlled cocklbur (Xanthium sp.) in soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merr. ‘Hampton’ or ‘Lee’). While treatments caused crop injury, treated soybeans produced higher seed yields than untreated soybeans infested with cocklebur plants. Seed yields from soybeans growing free of cocklebur were not reduced by treatment with chloroxuron or chloroxuron with surfactant but in some cases were reduced by 2,4-DB treatment.
