The sourgrass (Digitaria insularis) characteristics of aggressiveness and the existence of glyphosate resistant biotypes puts this weed in evidence in the Brazilian agricultural scenario In this regard, the present study aimed at the development and evaluation of strategies for the management of sourgrass (Digitaria insularis) resistant to glyphosate in out-of-season corn crop. The use of paraquat in pre-harvest burn-down of soybean followed by the application of clethodim two days after harvesting soybeans provided flexibility to choose the herbicide used as post-emergent in corn.
