Winter And Early Spring Herbicides For Kochia Control In Fallow, R. Currie, P. Geier Jan 2017

Winter And Early Spring Herbicides For Kochia Control In Fallow, R. Currie, P. Geier

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

A study was initiated near Garden City, KS, in fall of 2015 and spring of 2016 comparing the weed control of several herbicide treatments and their time of application for kochia control in fallow. All herbicide treatments applied in December 2015 provided 99 or 100% kochia control in early spring. However, control declined to less than 60% with these treatments by June 8, 2016. Spring-applied herbicides were generally more efficacious than winter-applied herbicides on June 8, with the best control from treatments of Clarity (dicamba) plus atrazine with or without Zidua (pyroxasulfone) (88 to 89%).

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports

A study was initiated near Garden City, KS, in 2016 comparing kochia control of several herbicide treatments and their time of application in fallow. Spring applications of five tank mixes containing the active ingredient isoxaflutole provided greater than 92% control of kochia. Fall applications of similar tank mixes provided from 78 to 84% control. Tank mixes of atrazine and dicamba applied in the spring provided only 89% control.
