Abstract

A study was established to evaluate herbicides registered for barnyardgrass control in rice for activity on creeping rivergrass. Treatments included 208 g ai/ha cyhalofop early POST (EPOST) followed by (fb) 315 g/ha cyhalofop late POST (LPOST), 22 g ai/ha bispyribac EPOST fb 22 g/ha bispyribac LPOST, 66 g ai/ha fenoxaprop EPOST fb 86 g/ha fenoxaprop LPOST, 70 g ai/ha imazethapyr EPOST fb 70 g/ha imazethapyr LPOST and 50 g ai/ha penoxsulam mid-POST (MPOST). Each POST program was evaluated with and without 448 g ai/ha clomazone PRE. Barnyardgrass control, averaged over days after treatment (DAT), was 88 to 92% with the addition of clomazone PRE. Clomazone applied PRE followed by two applications of cyhalofop controlled creeping rivergrass at 91%. Creeping rivergrass control was less than 75% at 35 to 49 DAT. This response indicates only suppression of creeping rivergrass is achieved with the herbicide programs evaluated in this study.
