Abstract

In field experiments conducted near Marianna, Trenton, and Archer, FL in 1990 and 1991, nicosulfuron applied 55 weeks after planting (WAP) at 18, 27, 36, or 54 g ai/ha injured peanut initially. When applied 7 WAP, only the two higher nicosulfuron rates injured peanut more than 10%. By 6 wk after application, crop injury was less than 8% for all treatments, except the highest (54 g/ha) rate. Nicosulfuron applied 5 or 7 WAP at 54 g/ha reduced peanut yield and sound mature kernels.
