Abstract

Control of the annual grasses Panicum dichotomiflorum and Setaria faberii and of johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense) seedlings by maize competition was 75%. With increasing rates of alachlor, the grass control was increased to 92%; alachlor did not provide more than 17% of the grass control. These results were obtained with a well adapted maize variety sown at 24 400 plants/acre with adequate soil fertility and moisture. From summary
