In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus under small-plot and farming trial conditions there was accomplished a study of influence of herbicides Saturn, MD (nicosulfuron, 40 g/l) and Saturn duo, MD (nicosulfuron, 40 g/l + mezotrion, 55 g/l) on maize (Zea mays) crops weed infestation by their application at corn 2-6 leaves stage. It is determined that the herbicide Saturn, MD (1,0; 1,3; 1,5 l/ha) is high effective against Agropyron repens (76,2-92,9% kill), Echinochloa crus-galli (88,1-94,8), Stellaria media (100), Sonchus arvensis (80,0-88,0% kill) and other weeds. Saturn duo, MD (1,25; 1,5 l/ha) suppresses more effectively dicotyledonous weed plants. Chenopodium album kill has made 90,4-97,8%, total weed kill – 90,5-94,3%. As a result of weed infestation decrease reliable corn grain yield increases have been obtained.
