Extract

The alkanolamine salts of 2,4–dinitro–o–secondary butyl phenol (DNBP) have been used frequently as a pre-emergence herbicide in cotton without causing injury. However, under some conditions the chemical has severely reduced the stand. This paper presents data that show the effects of rainfall, lime, soil type, and temperature on the phytotoxicity of dinitro to cotton seedlings.
