Abstract
Experiments were carried out on a Sharpsburg silty clay loam soil at Lincoln and a Holdrege silt loam at North Platte, Nebraska, to establish a weed control programme in maize grown after winter wheat in a wheat-maize-fallow rotation. The most difficult weeds to control were Abutilon theophrasti, Panicum dichotomiflorum, Digitaria sanguinalis and Physalis heterophylla. A programme that included atrazine at 2.2 kg/ha, cyanazine at 2.8 kg/ha or a mixture of the 2 at 0.9 kg + 1.9 kg/ha gave the lowest yield of weeds and the highest yield of maize. Combinations of the triazine herbicides with 2,4-D at 1.1 kg + Sunspray 11E oil at 9.4 litres/ha, paraquat at 0.3 kg/ha or glyphosate at 0.6 kg/ha were equally effective for controlling established weeds and maintaining high yields of maize. From summary.
