Abstract
Fomesafen unevenly applied at 2x rates can injure susceptible crops. Potted plant experiments indicated significant soybean plant height reductions with fomesafen at 750 g/ha, and significant soybean plant weight reduc- tions at 1500 g/ha. Corn and wheat plant weights were reduced significantly when seeded 90 d after application of fomesafen at 495 g/ha. Rapeseed plant weights were significantly reduced when seeded 90 d after application of fomesafen at 562.5 g/ha, while plant weights of corn, wheat, and rapeseed were not significantly affected when seeded 90 d after application of the recommended fomesafen rate of 375 g/ha. Application in mixture with bentazon allowed reduction of the fomesafen use rate and thus provided a useful means of reducing fomesafen crop injury.
