Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Preplant ethalfluralin did not injure cantaloupe or cotton
- Intervention effect Adding fomesafen preplant improved Palmer amaranth control to at least 92%, compared with ethalfluralin preplant
- Intervention effect Fomesafen preplant did not injure cotton
- Intervention effect Cantaloupe necrosis and chlorosis of up to 20% were recorded with fomesafen preplant
- Intervention effect Residual activity of halosulfuron-methyl reduced cotton growth by 12% at 4 wk after planting
- Intervention effect Halosulfuron-methyl did not improve Palmer amaranth control beyond ethalfluralin plus fomesafen preplant
- Intervention effect Intercropping systems controlling Palmer amaranth at least 92% gave cantaloupe yields similar to the weed-free monoculture
- Intervention effect Intercropping systems controlling Palmer amaranth at least 92% gave lint cotton yields 170 to 275 kg/ha lower than the weed-free monoculture
- Intervention effect Intercropping returns over variable costs exceeded those of cantaloupe monoculture and cotton monoculture while Palmer amaranth was controlled
- Recommendation Intercropping cantaloupe and cotton is an effective approach to improve grower profitability
