Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Sequential flumioxazin and S-metolachlor immediately after transplanting gave over 90% season-long Palmer amaranth control.
- Intervention effect S-metolachlor alone immediately after transplanting gave 80 to 93% weed control in 2007.
- Intervention effect Flumioxazin followed by S-metolachlor at 2 WAP gave 90% control in 2007.
- Intervention effect Flumioxazin followed by S-metolachlor at 2 WAP gave 38 to 79% control in 2008.
- Intervention effect S-metolachlor alone at 2 WAP did not provide acceptable weed control.
- Intervention effect Weed control was similar across S-metolachlor rates.
- Intervention effect In 2008, flumioxazin at 109 g ha−1 gave greater weed control than 91 g ha−1.
- Intervention effect Herbicide treatment caused minimal sweetpotato injury below 3%.
- Intervention effect Storage root length-to-width ratio for Beauregard was 2.5 in 2007, similar across treatments.
- Intervention effect Storage root length-to-width ratio for Beauregard was 2.4 in 2008, similar across treatments.
- Intervention effect Storage root length-to-width ratio for Covington was 1.9 in 2008, similar across treatments.
- Association Sweetpotato yield was directly related to Palmer amaranth control.
- Recommendation The authors recommend pretransplant flumioxazin followed by posttransplant S-metolachlor for Palmer amaranth control in sweetpotato.
