Chemical weed control in maize - bean intercropping

1995

Mmbaga, T.E.

In an attempt to alleviate a labour problem for weeding in maize - bean intercropping, several pre-emergence herbicides were evaluated at different rates and in mixtures. Gales (Metalochlor + Metabromuron), Dual (Metalochlor, Stomp (Pendimethalin) and Panter (Linuron + Pendimethalin) have been identified as promising products to control weeds in maize - bean intercrops. Three seasons of testing these herbicides and mixtures showed that Gales mixed with Stomp, each at half the recommended rate, provided the best weed control and value for money.
