Efficacy of herbicides on post-emergence control of Sisyrinchium micranthum Cav. and Agrostis sp.
This work aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of herbicides applied during post-emergence on weed control in onion crop that recently have infested the onion crop areas in Monte Alto city, São Paulo state, Brazil. Fourteen herbicides, either alone or in mixture, were tested to control Sisyrinchium micranthum Cav. and an unidentified specie of the genus Agrostis. The herbicides used were: flumioxazin, bentazon + ioxynil + oxyfluorfen, fluazifop-p-butyl, fluazifop-p-butil + ioxynil, fluazifop-p-butil + oxyfluorfen, paraquat + oxyfluorfen, paraquat + fluazifop-p-butil + oxyfluorfen, metribuzin, sethoxydim, clethodim + fenoxaprop-p-ethyl, oxadiazon, trifluralin, and oxyfluorfen. Herbicide efficacy was evaluated at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 days after herbicide spraying. The herbicides paraquat + oxyfluorfen, paraquat + fluazifop-p-butyl + metribuzin and oxyfluorfen showed good efficacy for Agrostis until 30 DAS and the herbicides bentazon + ioxynil + oxyfluorfen and paraquat + oxyfluorfen was considered satisfactory for S.micranthum.
