Effect of Rate, Carrier Volume, and Surfactant on Imazamethabenz Efficacy

Abstract

Imazamethabenz is a selective herbicide used to control wild oat in small grains. The effects of rate, volume of carrier, and surfactant concentration on the efficacy of this herbicide in controlling wild oat were studied in field experiments. As each of the variables increased, wild oat control increased; the greatest degree of wild oat growth inhibition occurred at the highest herbicide rate, highest volume of carrier, and highest surfactant concentration.
