Abstract
We compared diclofop {2-[4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)phenoxy] propanoic acid}, as an early over-the-top spray treatment, and glyphosate [ N -(phosphonomethyl)glycine], applied twice in repeated applications with a rope-wick applicator, for control of simulated volunteer corn ( Zea mays L.) planted in clumps at various intervals in rows of soybeans [ Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. Uncontrolled corn at the lowest density (clumps 2.4m apart in the row) reduced soybean yields an average of 31%. Both herbicides were highly effective in controlling corn, but when corn densities were high, diclofop treatments often resulted in greater soybean yields than did glyphosate treatments — presumably because corn interfered with the soybeans for a longer time before glyphosate was applied.

Claim · model-written summary
Corn interfering with soybeans for longer before glyphosate application presumably explains the higher soybean yields under diclofop.
