Preemergence Weed Control with FulTime NXT and Competitive Standards in Grain Sorghum

R. Currie, P. Geier
2016 Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports  
At 71 days after treatment, FulTime NXT (acetochlor + atrazine) at 2.5 or 3.0 qt/a and Lumax EZ (Smetolachlor + atrazine + mesotrione) at 2.0 qt/a were the only treatments to control Palmer amaranth at 90% or more. All treatments provided similar velvetleaf control. Green foxtail control was 75 to 83% with all rates of FulTime NXT or Lumax EZ. Sorghum receiving FulTime NXT at 2.5 or 3.0 qt/a or Lumax EZ yielded significantly more than the control treatments. Summary At 71 days after treatment,
