e0“Compared with constant spray volume, corn yield reduction was 1.5 times greater for the 12.5% rate but 4 times greater for the 6.3% rate when spray volume was varied proportionally to the herbicide rates.”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect At the 12.5% rate, proportional carrier volume caused more corn height reduction than constant volume.
- Intervention effect At the 6.3% rate, proportional carrier volume reduced corn height by 38%, unlike constant volume.
- Intervention effect Proportional volume increased corn injury from 33 to 51% at the 12.5% rate.
- Intervention effect Proportional volume increased corn injury from 18 to 38% at the 6.3% rate.
- Intervention effect Corn yield reduction was 4 times greater with proportional volume at the 6.3% rate.
- Intervention effect Soybean response did not differ by carrier volume.
- Intervention effect Glyphosate injured soybean more than glufosinate.
- Observation Soybean recovered rapidly after herbicide injury.
- Intervention effect Soybean yield was not negatively affected by herbicides.
- Recommendation The authors suggest constant spray volume may underestimate drift yield loss in sensitive crops.
