Abstract
Kabuli chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) were sown on 10 December 1993 and subjected to a range of treatments for weed control. There were 7 pre-emergence treatments, 10 post- emergence treatments and three controls: unweeded, hand weeded and hoed. Chemicals tested were known to be selective on field peas, (Pisum sativum L.), including the grass controlling herbicides clethodim and haloxyfop, and the broadleaf controlling herbicides bentazone, cyanazine, MCPB, metribuzin, and terbuthylazine. The herbicides were applied at the recommended dose rate for field peas, twice the recommended dose rate and in several combinations at the recommended rate for each herbicide. Best control of weeds and greatest dry•matter production of chickpeas was obtained from pre-emergence treatment with cyanazine at 1.0 kg a.i./ha, terbuthylazine at 1.0 kg a.i.!ha, the combination of cyanazine at 1.0 kg a.i./ha with metribuzin at 0.25 kg a.i./ha, and hand weeding. The chickpeas were seriously damaged by post-emergence application of cyanazine, bentazone, and their combination.
