Abstract

Imazethapyr, alone and in combination with other herbicides, was applied PPI, PRE, and POST to pinto beans to determine weed control and selectivity to the crop. All of the herbicides improved pinto bean yield as compared with the unweeded control. Imazethapyr applied PPI and POST provided excellent control of black nightshade, kochia, Russian thistle, prostrate pigweed, and redroot pigweed. Barnyardgrass control with imazethapyr ranged from 58 to 96% and increased to 98% or greater when imazethapyr was combined with metolachlor, pendimethalin, trifluralin, or EPTC. Pinto bean yield was not reduced from any herbicide treatment compared to the handweeded control.
