e0“alfalfa response was evaluated when chlorsulfuron, thifensulfuron, 2,4-D, glyphosate, bromoxynil, and selected combinations of those herbicides were applied at rates simulating spray drift during the fourth trifoliolate leaf stage following the first cutting in 1990 and 1991”
e2“By the end of each growing season, alfalfa had recovered from injury caused by all herbicides except the highest rates of 2,4-D and 2,4-D plus glyphosate”

- Observation The phytotoxicity order of the tested herbicides on alfalfa was 2,4-D > chlorsulfuron > thifensulfuron > glyphosate > bromoxynil.
- Intervention effect The alfalfa stand was reduced only by 2,4-D and 2,4-D plus glyphosate.
- Intervention effect All herbicides caused characteristic symptoms on alfalfa.
