Research was conducted on a sandy clay loam in Georgia during 1987–88 and 1988–89 to determine winter wheat, oats, barley, and Italian ryegrass tolerance to flurtamone. Flurtamone was applied PPI, PRE, and early POST at 0.28, 0.56, and 1.1 kg ai ha-1. Order of tolerance of the four species was barley > wheat > oat > Italian ryegrass. Flurtamone potentially can be used to control Italian ryegrass in winter wheat and barley, but not in oats. In general, wheat and oat injury with flurtamone was PPI > PRE ≥ early POST, particularly at 1.1 kg ha-1.
