Small plot herbicide trials in sugarcane fields in Trinidad for the last 10 years are reviewed. Metribuzin was superior to the standard treatment Atrazine for pre-emergence control, giving a longer period of control for all major weed species except Cyperus spp. Terbuthiuron was also effective but does not control emerging weeds, as was Asulam/Atrazine. Metribuzin, hexazinone/diuron and terbutryn gave good pre-post-emergence control. The standard diuron/2,4-D amine/paraquat mixture proved best for post-emergence control. Summaries of the results are tabulated
