Abstract
Field studies were conducted in 1984, 1985, and 1986 to compare standard flat fan nozzles, low-volume flat fan nozzles, rotary controlled droplet applicators, and air-assisted nozzles for postemergence weed control in onions with oxyfluorfen and fluazifop-P. Herbicides applied with flat fan nozzles at 47 or 190 L/ha controlled broadleaf and grass weeds as good or better than with the other nozzles. Oxyfluorfen applied with flat fan nozzles controlled common lambsquarters and ladysthumb best. None of the nozzles improved control of the difficult marsh yellowcress. Carrier volume had minimal effect on weed control. Nozzle and carrier volume did not affect onion yield.
