Chickpea pre-harvest dessication (2004)

Studies were conducted in 2003 at Bozeman, MT and in 2004 at Minot, ND.

Minot

Large kabuli chickpea, “Sierra,” was planted on April 27 at Minot. The study was seeded on barley residue and arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Herbicides were applied with a backpack sprayer delivering 10 gpa at 40 psi through XR8001 nozzles.

Six herbicides were applied prior to harvest on Aug 31, Sep 7, and Sep 15.  Treatments were evaluated visually for percent desiccation two or three times following application (Table 2).    

Bozeman

Large kabuli chickpea, “Yuma,” was planted May 16 at Bozeman, MT.  The trial was seeded on fallow and arranged in a RCBD with four replications.  Applications were made with a CO2 backpack sprayer delivering 10 gpa at 40 psi through 8001 flat fan nozzles.   

Six herbicides were applied prior to harvest on Aug 12, 18, and 25.  Treatments were evaluated visually for percent desiccation at 3, 7, and 14 DAT (Table 3).

Results:

Minot

•   Paraquat provided more chickpea desiccation within 3 DAT.

•   Paraquat and glufosinate provided faster desiccation than glyphosate at 7-10 DAT (Table 2).

•   Glufosinate and glyphosate provided similar desiccation by 17-21 DAT.

•   Carfentrazone, flumioxazin, and lactofen did not provide adequate desiccation.

Bozeman

•       Paraquat provided faster desiccation by 3 DAT; however, by 14 DAT glufosinate and glyphosate provided similar or better desiccation (Table 3).

•       Carfentrazone, flumioxazin, and lactofen provided less desiccation.

*Paraquat was applied with nonionic surfactant (NIS) at 0.25% v/v.  Carfentrazone, lactofen, and flumioxazin were applied with crop oil concentrate (COC) at 1% v/v.  Glufosinate and glyphosate were applied with ammonium sulfate (AMS) at 3 lb/A and 8.5 lb per 100 gallons of water, respectively.
