Field Evaluation Of Herbicides On Rice 2005, Drew T. Ellis, Ronald E. Talbert, Marilyn R. Mcclelland

Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series

Field studies to evaluate herbicides in rice weed management systems were conducted in 2005 at the Rice Research and Extension Center near Stuttgart, Arkansas. New herbicides, herbicide mixtures, and application timings were evaluated for weed control efficacy and rice tolerance. Results of these studies, in part, provide useful information to producers, fellow researchers, and the crop protection industry for the most effective, economical herbicide programs for successful rice production in Arkansas.

Rice production in Arkansas is one of the top three crop commodities in terms of cash receipts. Researchers and farmers report that nitrogen (N) needs to be managed according to a variety of factors with two important ones being soil and fertilizer type. The objectives of this experiment were to determine: 1) the degree to which floodwater-incorporated N applied as urea or as ammonium sulfate infiltrates intact cores (7.2-cm dia., 10-cm depth) containing DeWitt siltloam soil, and 2) the distribution of N during 12 h of ponding. Inorganic-N concentrations were analyzed at 2-cm depth intervals in cores following removal of …


Effects Of Tank Mixes Of Mon 3539 And Selected Compounds In Roundupready Flex® Cotton – 2005, Jarrod Hardke, Gus Lorenz, Kyle Colwell, Craig Shelton Jan 2006

Effects Of Tank Mixes Of Mon 3539 And Selected Compounds In Roundupready Flex® Cotton – 2005, Jarrod Hardke, Gus Lorenz, Kyle Colwell, Craig Shelton

Discovery, The Student Journal of Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences

Field experiments were conducted in 2005 to evaluate potential weed control interactions when MON 3539 (glyphosate) was applied with several insecticides and a plant growth regulator to RoundupReady Flex® cotton. Applications were made at the 1-3 leaf stage, the 6-8 node stage, and at the 12-14 node stage. Different combinations of tank mixes were used in each of the three applications. In the first application, all plots received the same treatment: MON 3539 at a rate of 0.75 lb ae/a. A second application was made to evaluate crop injury. Only the MON 3539 + Dimate (dimethoate) mixture significantly increased crop …
