Abstract

Abstract Research was conducted at five locations in 1998 and three locations in 1999 to evaluate the effects of labeled and below-label rates of sulfentrazone on weed control and phytotoxicity in flue-cured tobacco. Rates ranged from 0.14 to 0.42 kg ai ha −1 . Labeled rates varied based upon soil texture and percent organic matter at each location. All rates were applied preplant incorporated (PPI) and pre-transplant to the soil surface (PRE-T). Additionally, at two locations in 1998 and 1999, all rates of sulfentrazone were tank-mixed with clomazone at 0.84 kg ai ha −1 and applied PPI and PRE-T. Tobacco stunting was observed at four of eight locations. No significant differences in stunting or control of Palmer amaranth, pitted morningglory, redroot pigweed, and yellow nutsedge were observed between the 0.5X and 1X rates. Large crabgrass control was similar with 0.75X and 1X rates. Stunting from PPI applications of sulfentrazone was significantly greater than PRE-T applications at three of the four locations where stunting was observed. At two of the four locations where stunting was observed, stunting was significantly reduced by the use of a tank-mix of clomazone and sulfentrazone. PRE-T applications were less effective than PPI applications at only one location for each weed species rated probably as a result of below normal rainfall during the test. Rates of sulfentrazone can be reduced to 0.50 – 0.75X without reducing weed control. However, rate reduction did not reduce the phytotoxicity of sulfentrazone when applied PPI. Based on our results, PRE-T applications offer the greatest opportunity to reduce tobacco stunting due to applications of sulfentrazone.
