Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Alachlor at 2.2 kg ha –1 reduced sicklepod dry weight and leaf area four weeks after planting.
- Intervention effect Both rates of alachlor initially lowered sicklepod water use.
- Intervention effect Metribuzin at 0.4 kg ha –1 initially lowered soybean water use.
- Intervention effect Metribuzin at 0.4 kg ha –1 initially lowered common cocklebur water use.
- Intervention effect High rates of metribuzin reduced common cocklebur fresh weight at soybean harvest.
- Intervention effect Soybean competing with sicklepod treated with either alachlor rate yielded more than soybean competing with untreated sicklepod.
- Intervention effect Metribuzin did not improve soybean yields with common cocklebur competition.
