Application of clomazone and oxyfluorfen herbicide mixture and its effect on weed growth

Abstract This research aims to determine the growth of weeds due to the application of a mixture of clomazone and oxyfluorfen herbicides. The experimental design was a Randomized Completely Block Design. The treatments were: without herbicide (control), 3.125L/ha of clomazone, 6.250L/ha of oxyfluorfen, 1.563L/ha of clomazone + 3.125L/ha of oxyfluorfen, 2.084 L/ha of clomazone + 4.167L/ha oxyfluorfen, 1.042L/ha of clomazone + 4.167L/ha of oxyfluorfen, 2.084L/ha of clomazone + 2.084L/ha of oxyfluorfen, 1.042L/ha of clomazone + 2.084L/ha of oxyfluorfen. The variables observed were: weed control percentage, weed coverage percentage, individual weed, weed species and dry weight of weeds at 4 and 6 week after planting (WAP). The herbicide mixture affected the weed control percentage, weed coverage percentage, individual weed, weed species and dry weight of weeds. The application of a mixture of clomazone + oxyfluorfen herbicide at 1.042L/ha + 2.084L/ha was able to increase the weed control percentage and reduced weed coverage percentage, individual weeds, weed species and dry weight of weeds.
