Effect of postemergence herbicides on agronomics characteristics of soybean cv. Emgopa 316
DOI: 10.7824/rbh.v1i2.330
A experiment was carried out at the Bela Vista Farm, in Serranópolis, State ofGoiás, with the objective to evaluate the effects of postemergence herbicides on agronomic characteristcs of soybean cv. Emgopa 316, with premature maturation cycle. Treatments consisted oflactofen (168 glha), chlorimuron-ethyl (15 glha) + mineral oil (0.2 v/v), fomesafen (250 g/ha) + mineral oil (0.2 v/v), imazethapyr (100 g/ha), chlorimuron-ethyl+lactofen (12.5+96 g/ha), chlorimuronethyl+ fomesafen (12.5+ 150 g/ha), chlorirnuron-ethyl+imazethapyr (12.5+50 g/ha), imazethapyr+lactofen (50+96 g/ha), imazethapyr+fomesafen (50+ 150 g/ha), and a handweeded control. The studied herbicide doses caused some injury to soybean, with more intensity in the treatments with lactofen. However, they did not significantly intluence the height of plants at 15, 30 and 45 days after treatments and at soybean harvest. The herbicides also did not significantly affect insertion height of the first pod, final stand, number of podslplant, weight of 1000 seeds and grain production. Imazethapyr+fomesafen (50+ 150 g/ha) gave the best result in number of internodes, but it did not differ statistically from the other treatments, except for lactofen (168 g/ha), that proportioned the lowest number of internodes. Lactofen isolated or combined with chlorimuron-ethyl or with imazethapyr can be used in soybean cv. Emgopa 316, showing results similar to fomesafen isolated or in mixture with chlorimuron-ethyl or imazethapyr.
