Persistence of prodiamine and norflurazon herbicides in soil and their activity on alfalfa rotational crops

Creator:: Fischer, Vernon F.
Abstract:: Norflurazon [4-chloro-5-(methylamino)-2(3-(trifluoromethyl) phenyl)- 3(2H)- pyridazinone] and prodiamine (N3, N3-di-n-propy1-2,4- dinitro-6-(trifluoromethyl)-m-phenylenediamine) are two herbicides being considered for weed control in alfalfa. Rotational crops following alfalfa may be sensitive to residues of these herbicides. Studies were conducted in Oregon and Washington to examine the soil persistence and activity of these herbicides on...

The influence of magnesium on the toxicity of atrazine

Creator:: Brenchley, Ronald Glenn
Abstract:: Atrazine is an asymmetrical s-triazine herbicide used pre- and post emergence for weed control in many crops. Triazine herbicides have been used in the Pacific-Northwest for weed control in orchard crops. Under certain conditions where trees were grown in nutrient deficient areas, it was noted that toxic symptoms due to...

Factors influencing the effectiveness of activated carbon used to protect newly-seeded grasses from herbicides

Creator:: Burr, Ronald J.
Abstract:: Previous research has shown that activated carbon is effective in inactivating certain herbicides applied as a preemergence treatment. Studies were conducted in the greenhouse to determine the influence of various factors on the ability of activated carbon to inactivate herbicides applied after carbon application. Field studies were conducted to determine...

Interference of annual weeds in seedling alfalfa

Creator:: Fischer, Albert J.
Abstract:: The interference of barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli), pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus),downy brome (Bromus tectorum),and tumble mustard (Sisymbrium altissimum) with alfalfa was studied. Alfalfa was seeded with each of the four weeds on August 14 and September 15, 1981, and on April 13, 1982. Alfalfa also was seeded on August 27, 1981, with...

Factors influencing barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli) control with diclofop

Creator:: West, Lynn Douglas
Abstract:: Diclofop (2- [4 -(2, 4-dichlorophenoxy)phenoxy] propanoic acid), formulated as the methyl ester, selectively kills barnyardgrass [Echinochloa crus -galli (L.) Beauv.] in several crops when applied postemergence. Studies were conducted to determine the effect of soil moisture, barnyardgrass age, and site of exposure on control of barnyardgrass with diclofop. Soil moisture...

Influence of Norbak, Dacagin, and Vistik on spray drift, volatility, adherence, and efficacy of several herbicides

Creator:: Ekins, Walter Leo
Abstract:: Norbak, Dacagin, and Vistik, when mixed with a spray solution, each have the unique property of increasing the viscosity of that solution. This property has been used commercially for the reduction of spray drift. Studies were made of the drift control adjuvants to determine the following: (1) the effect of...

Degradation of the herbicide EPTC in three Willamette Valley soils

Creator:: Coleman, Quentin Charles
Abstract:: EPIC (S-ethyl dipropylthiocarbamate) is a selective herbicide which controls some annual grasses, annual broadleaves, and perennial grasses when incorporated into the soil before planting. In the last few years, reports have been received of certain fields in the Willamette Valley of Oregon in which EPIC was no longer effective. Preliminary...

Interaction between glyphosate and certain s-triazine herbicides

Creator:: Somabhi, Montien
Abstract:: Investigations were made in the field, greenhouse, growth chamber, and laboratory to: (a) observe the general activity of N- (phosphonomethyl)glycine (glyphosate); (b) determine the extent of its interaction with certain s-triazine herbicides; and (c) find an explanation for such an interaction. Greenhouse and growth chamber studies substantiated other observations that...

Factors influencing metribuzin use in strip-planted wheat

Creator:: Zeghida, Ali
Abstract:: Equipment for strip-till planting is under development in wheat-fallow rotations in the Columbia Basin of Oregon. This involves the absence of tillage during the fallow season. At planting time, the strip-till planter creates a narrow band into which the wheat seed is placed. The area between the rows is undisturbed...

Factors affecting selective weedy rye (Secale sp.) control in winter wheat with the herbicide ethiazin

Creator:: Diener, Phillip R.
Abstract:: Weedy rye (Secale spp.) is a weed in the winter-wheat- growing regions in the Pacific Northwest and surrounding regions. Ethiazin (4-amino-6-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3- (ehtylthio)-1,2,4-triazine-5 (4H)-one) has shown selective control of weedy rye in the cultivar 'Stephens', (Triticum aestivum). Field, greenhouse, and outdoor pot experiments were conducted to determine factors influencing selectivity. Field...

Abstract:: Volunteer winter wheat (Triticum aestivum 'Daws') severely suppressed growth of fall-planted alfalfa (Medicago sativa (L.) 'Vernal') seedlings. Wheat competition began soon after alfalfa emerged and continued until the first forage harvest the following May. Alfalfa yield at the first cutting was reduced by 1% for each day volunteer wheat was...
