a half percent by weight of corn seeds before planting.
Studies were
conducted to determine the factors affecting the action of antidote in
corn (Zea mays L. var. NB 501D)...
Several herbicides were evaluated for selective weed control in sweet corn in 1961. Various methods of application were compared and a comparison of planting depths was made to determine possible interactive effects with Eptam applications
SUMMARY

control in sweet corn.
• The most effective treatments were Impact and Laudis applied with Outlook and atrazine at
V2-3.
