Abstract

Field experiments were conducted near Scottsbluff, NE, to evaluate the selectivity of sequential POST applications of ethofumesate and triflusulfuron for weed control in sugarbeet. When applied alone ethofumesate and triflusulfuron reduced common lambsquarters, hairy nightshade, and redroot pigweed density while triflusulfuron also reduced kochia density compared with an untreated control. Combining ethofumesate with desmedipham plus phenmedipham increased sugarbeet injury compared with desmedipham plus phenmedipham. Combining triflusulfuron with desmedipham plus phenmedipham increased kochia control but did not increase sugarbeet injury over that obtained with desmedipham plus phenmedipham. Weed control and sugarbeet injury from herbicides generally were unaffected by application in 97 or 182 L/ha of water carrier. However, herbicide control of hairy nightshade in 1993 was greater with 97 than 182 L/ha of water carrier.
