Abstract

Field research was conducted in Nebraska to evaluate the efficacy of herbicides for the control of summer annual weeds in sorghum [ Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench.]. During 1976 to 1979, no-till plots treated with a mixture of paraquat (1,1′-dimethyl-4,4′-bipyridinium ion), atrazine [6-chloro- N -ethyl- N ′-(1-methylethyl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine], and terbutryn [ N -(1,1-dimethylethyl)- N′ -ethyl-6-(methylthio)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine] yielded 33% more sorghum grain than plots receiving the same herbicides when a seedbed was prepared by disking. During 1981 to 1983, season-long weed control was obtained with acetochlor [2-chloro- N -(ethoxymethyl)- N -(2-ethyl-6-methylphenyl) acetamide], alachlor [2-chloro- N -(2,6-diethylphenyl)- N -(methoxymethyl)acetamide], cyanazine {2-[[4-chloro-6-(ethylamino)-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl] amino]-2-methylpropanenitrile}, metolachlor [2-chloro- N -(2-ethyl-6-methylphenyl)- N -(2-methoxy-1-methylethyl)acetamide], or terbutryn added to paraquat plus atrazine and metolachlor plus cyanazine plus paraquat applied 10 days prior to planting. The use of seed safeners did not increase sorghum yield.
