Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Season-long weed competition decreased grain yield by 29%.
- Intervention effect Metribuzin at 40 days controlled Phalaris minor.
- Intervention effect Metribuzin at 60 days better controlled Polygonum plebeium and Melilotus indica.
- Observation Sulfosulfuron showed high activity against weed species except I? plebeium.
- Intervention effect Earlier sulfosulfuron application gave greater weed control at equivalent doses.
- Intervention effect Sulfosulfuron caused transient leaf yellowing and stunted growth, stronger with delayed application.
- Intervention effect All treatments except 2.4-D yielded significantly more grain than the weeded check.
- Intervention effect Manual weeding gave the highest grain yield.
- Intervention effect Low sulfosulfuron and metribuzin doses at 40 days gave yields similar to manual weeding.
