The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the use of residual herbicides applied in the pre-emergence of beans, on reducing weed infestations, and the agronomic performance of the crop. Two field experiments were conducted, one had the cultivar UFT -06 (Carioca Group, short cycle and erect) and another, the IPR Graúna (Black Group, long cycle, prostrate habit). The treatments consisted of application of the herbicides pendimethalin (1.2 and 1.4 kg ha-1) and trifluralin (1.2 and 1.4 […]

Talinum paniculatum is a species of the Portulacacea family, popularly known as “maria-gorda”, weed in crops such as sugarcane, common bean, soybean, corn and carrot, as well as in non-agricultural areas. This work aimed to study the efficacy of herbicides in the control of T. paniculatum, as well as its effect on fresh and dry mass of these plants in three stages of development. The experimental design was completely randomized, with nine treatments and four replications, positioned in three stages: […]

The Plene® system is a new cane planting technology that came to simplify and streamline the initial phase of planting, since it employs mini-stalks previously treated. However, there is a lack of information on the selectivity of herbicides in this new system and, due to this, it was aimed to evaluate the phytotoxicity of herbicides commonly used in the traditional cultivation of sugarcane for the control in pre-and post-emergence of weeds when employed in Plene® system. Two experiments have been […]

It was aimed to verify the efficacy and selectivity of herbicides applied alone or in tank mixture for the weed control in peanut crop cv Runner IAC 886. Therefore, it was settled a field experiment, in a randomized block design with four replications. The treatments applied in pre-emergence were: 1-imazapic, 3-imazapic + pendimethalin, and 5-imazapic + trifluralin; the treatments applied in post-emergence were: 2-imazapic, 4-imazapic + pendimethalin, and 10-imazapic + (bentazon + paraquat); and treatments with application in PRE followed […]

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the confirmation of occurrence of wild poinsettia resistance, coming from Rondônia and Rio Grande do Sul, to herbicides with different mechanisms of action, and to determine the dose of herbicides required for 50% reduction in the dry mass of plants (GR50) and for the control of 50% of these plants in each experimental unit (C50). Therefore, an experiment was conducted over greenhouse conditions, in randomized block design with four replications. The […]

The spray nozzles are responsible for the formation of droplets, each nozzle type exerts a different function, with its own characteristics related to the deposition of droplets according to the desired target. This study aimed to evaluate the distribution, droplet diameter and phytotoxicity of glyphosate and isoxaflutole herbicides applied in eucalyptus seedlings with air induction nozzles (AIUB 04 and TTI 110 04). The spectrum of droplet diameter was determined by particle size analyzer by laser light diffraction. The volumetric distribution […]

Information regarding the desiccation of Brachiaria ruziziensis are scarce in the literature, especially with the use of contact action herbicides. The objective was to evaluate different doses and spray volumes of paraquat in the management of the desiccation of the foraging B. ruziziensis and the effects on soybean crop and weed suppression. The experimental design was completely randomized block with four replications. The treatments were arranged in a factorial scheme 4 x 6 + 1, corresponding to the evaluation of […]

In the desiccation of the vegetation cover, failures are of common occurrence, resulting from insufficient deposition of herbicides. Thus, it becomes important to know the factors that may interfere in the application. The present work aimed to investigate the efficiency of the pulverization of spray volumes in different weather conditions. The applications were carried out during the day for desiccation of Urochloa ruziziensis and spontaneous vegetation for no-tillage establishment. It was adopted a randomized block design with four replications in […]

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the glyphosate + quizalofop-p-tefuril in tank mixture with multifunctional adjuvants or oils for the control of RR® corn. The experiment was conducted over greenhouse conditions. The treatments were arranged in a factorial design 11 x 2, with six replications. The treatments consisted of factor A, applying glyphosate + quizalofop-p-tefuril (1080 g a.e. + 36 g a.i. ha-1 – T1) and associations of this with adjuvants, at doses of: 150 […]

The production of mauve (Urena lobata) and jute (Corchorus capsularis) fiber is demanded by the industry as a raw material in the production of canvas, ropes, book covers and other applications. The production cycle of this fiber is a sustainable activity because it uses renewable resources of the floodplains of the Solimões River in the Amazonas state. The crop management combined with weed control are conditions for the species to express the maximum productive potential. The use of selective herbicides […]
