Abstract

Postemergence treatments with 3-[p-(p-chlorophenoxy)phenyl]-1,1-dimethylurea [chloroxuron], for broadleaf weed control in soybeans [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] often partially defoliate, and temporarily stunt the crop. Chloroxuron was applied at 3 lb/A and at 1, 1½, and 3 lb/A with surfactant over the tops of weed-free soybeans in the cotyledon, unifoliate, and first trifoliolate stages of growth in 1967, 1968, and 1969. Relatively small but statistically significant yield reductions, particularly from treatments in the unifoliate stage, resulted in 1967. No significant yield reductions resulted in 1968 or 1969. These studies demonstrated the ability of soybeans to withstand initial injury from early postemergence treatments with chloroxuron without serious reductions in yield.
