A field trial was established at the Oregon State University Vegetable Research Farm, Corvallis, Oregon, to evaluate control of barnyardgrass and tolerance of several vegetable crops to diclofop-methyl (Hoelon) and a related experimental herbicide, HOE 23408 PLUS.
The physical and chemical properties of soils greatly affect the
toxicity of bromacil and picloram. Consequently, a knowledge of the
parameters which influence the soil inactivation of these herbicides
is necessary to determine proper application rates for good weed control.
Enhancement in phytotoxicity with the addition of surfactants or
