Weed control in dry bean (2001)

Maverick pinto beans were seeded June 2 into 30-inch rows at 60 lb/A in a conventional tillage system. Individual plots were 10 x 30 ft and replicated three times. Treatments were applied preplant incorporated (PPI) or preemgergance (PRE) on June 2, or postemergence (POST) on July 9 (0-2 lf), or July 23 (POST 2). The primary weeds were biennial wormwood (Biww) and kochia (Kocz).

a Rep = replication; each treatment is applied to three 10 by 30 ft blocks or replications.

 

Spartan, Broadstrike, Python, Sencor, Valor, and Raptor are not registered for use in dry bean as of late 2001. Spartan and Raptor are likely to be labeled for use in dry bean in ND in the future. In this study, Spartan, Sencor, Valor, and Basagran provided good to excellent kochia control. With the exception of Treflan, all treatments provided fair to excellent control of biennial wormwood.

We observed more crop injury in the 1st replication (rep) compared to reps 2 and 3. We found that the soil in rep 1 was higher in soil pH, which likely contributed to the higher crop injury. Spartan and Sencor will be more active as soil pH increases, thus increasing the chance of crop injury.


PLEASE NOTE:
Some treatments shown may be experimental and not labeled for general use. Always check herbicide labels before applying.
