Abstract

A 2-yr field study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of ICIA-0051 for the control of annual grass and broadleaf weed species in conventional tillage corn. Treatments consisted of postemergence applications of ICIA-0051 alone and in combination with cyanazine or atrazine. ICIA-0051 at 0.6 kg ha-1 alone and in combination with cyanazine or atrazine at 1.1 kg ha-1 controlled large crabgrass, yellow foxtail, fall panicum, common lambsquarters, and redroot pigweed effectively (over 90%). The addition of cyanazine or atrazine at 1.1 kg ha-1 to the lowest rate (0.3 kg ha-1) of ICIA-0051 also improved large crabgrass, yellow foxtail, and fall panicum control by 9, 7, and 26%, respectively. None of the treatments of ICIA-0051 except the highest rate (1.1 kg ha-1) reduced either silage or grain yields of corn.
