e0“Benefin ( N -butyl- N -ethyl-α,α,α-trifluoro-2,6-dinitro- p -toluidine) applied as a preplant incorporated treatment followed by application at the ground-cracking stage (GC) of a mixture of alachlor [(2-chloro-2′,6′-diethyl- N -(methoxymethyl)acetanilide] plus naptalam ( N -1-naphthylphthalamic acid) and dinoseb (2- sec -butyl-4,6-dinitro-phenol) significantly increased the yield of peanuts ( Arachis hypogaea L. ‘Florunner’).”

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Delaying the ground-cracking mixture for 10 days did not significantly depress yields when averaged over soils, though some soil series differed.
- Intervention effect Herbicide sequences ending in five dinoseb applications substantially and consistently reduced yield, especially on Ruston soil.
- Association Late-planted peanuts were often more susceptible to intensive herbicide treatments than early plantings.
- Intervention effect Starting intensive sequences with vernolate reduced peanut yields more than starting with benefin.
- Intervention effect Disulfoton significantly increased Florunner peanut yield on Greenville and Ruston soils.
- Intervention effect Disulfoton did not significantly increase peanut yield on Dothan soil.
- Association The disulfoton-by-herbicide interaction was not significant.
- Association Herbicides interacted more frequently with planting date, treatment time, soil series and year than disulfoton did.
