Chemical Weed Control in Direct Seeded Rice: The Evaluation of Selected Herbicides for Phytotoxicity to the Rice Plant
The phytotoxic effect of 2,4-D amine, 2,4-DIBE-butachlor; butachlor, benthiocarb and molinate on rice plants were assessed. Applications of the herbicides at different time resulted in severe phytotoxicity when applied before seeding. Early postemergent applications were also generally phytotoxic...

| Summary: | The phytotoxic effect of 2,4-D amine, 2,4-DIBE-butachlor; butachlor, benthiocarb and
molinate on rice plants were assessed. Applications of the herbicides at different time resulted in
severe phytotoxicity when applied before seeding. Early postemergent applications were also generally
phytotoxic, adversely affecting plant growth and grain yield. Late applications 8 to 10 weeks after
seeding were least injurious. Among the herbicides, molinate was the least phytotoxic. |
