Abstract

Field experiments were conducted from 1983 through 1987 to evaluate various postemergence grass herbicides on bermudagrass in peanuts. Fluazifop, haloxyfop, and SC-1084 applied once effectively controlled common bermudagrass when less than 8 cm tall, but resulted in variable control when applied to bermudagrass 15 cm or taller. Sethoxydim effectively controlled common bermudagrass one of 2 yr. ‘Coastal’ bermudagrass required two applications of BAS 517, fluazifop-P at 0.21 or 0.28 kg ai/ha, and haloxyfop for control of better than 88%. Clethodim and sethoxydim provided poor to fair control, respectively.
