Abstract

The response of giant burreed (S. eurycarpum) to bentazone, propanil, 2,4-D (amine salt) and 2,4-D + crop oil (0.5% v/v) was evaluated at the 2-aerial-leaf stage of wild rice (Z. palustris). Bentazone, 2,4-D and 2,4-D + crop oil at >=1.1 kg/ha in 1984, and propanil and 2,4-D + crop oil at 4.5 kg/ha in 1985 reduced giant burreed DW. Generally, herbicide rates >1.1 kg/ha injured wild rice and reduced yields compared to weed-free controls. None of the treatments resulted in effective giant burreed control without unacceptable injury to wild rice.
