Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Granular propachlor controlled weeds similarly to wettable powder.
- Intervention effect Granular propachlor sometimes caused greater cabbage injury than wettable powder.
- Intervention effect Propachlor incorporated before drilling gave slightly poorer weed control than surface application after drilling.
- Intervention effect Marketable yields under the combination did not differ significantly from hand-weeded controls.
- Intervention effect Pre-drilling incorporation of the propachlor and trifluralin combination gave almost as good results.
- Recommendation The authors suggest applying both herbicides in one operation at suitable doses.
