Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Herbicide applications improved weed control.
- Intervention effect Herbicides slightly reduced corn growth and yield versus handweeding.
- Intervention effect Herbicide-treated corn growth and yield exceeded weedy check.
- Intervention effect Lack of shielding further decreased growth and yield.
- Intervention effect Unshielded paraquat decreased plant height by more than 10%.
- Intervention effect Unshielded paraquat decreased leaf area by more than 20%.
- Intervention effect Unshielded glyphosate decreased plant height by 15%.
- Intervention effect Unshielded glyphosate decreased leaf area by 25%.
- Intervention effect Paraquat reduced corn yield by more than 50%.
- Intervention effect Glyphosate reduced corn yield by more than 60%.
- Intervention effect Herbicides affected effective plant percentage, especially without shielding.
- Intervention effect Weed control at two weeks produced uniform tasseling and silking.
- Intervention effect Unshielded glyphosate before four weeks delayed 50% tasseling and silking.
- Recommendation Paraquat and glyphosate should be properly shielded in corn fields.
