Abstract

The duration of the soil activity of an acetolactate synthase-(ALS) inhibiting herbicide which is currently under approval for sugar beet cultivation was determined in a field trial series in Germany in 2013 and 2014. The herbicide containing foramsulfuron (FSN; 50 g L−1) and thiencarbazone-methyl (TCM; 30 g L−1) was applied in different dosages (25+15, 37.5+22.5 and 50+30 g FSN+TCM ha−1) to the bare soil. Five weed species (rapeseed, common lambsquarters, wild chamomile, blackgrass, barnyardgrass) were sown at 5, 10, 15 and 20d after application. The duration of the soil activity was assessed by determining percent weed control in the treated plots. The longest duration was observed after applying 50+30 g FSN+TCM ha−1, but the influence of environment was much stronger than the dosage effect. The mean duration of soil activity was 10 to 15 d in 2013 and longer than 20 d in 2014. Differences among weed species in their response to the herbicide treatments were small.

Se realizaron una serie de ensayos de campo en Alemania en 2013 y 2014, para determinar la duración de la actividad en el suelo de un herbicida inhibidor de acetolactate synthase (ALS), el cual está actualmente siendo considerado para aprobación de su uso en remolacha azucarera. Se aplicó un herbicida que contenía foramsulfuron (FSN; 50 g L−1) y thiencarbazone-methyl (TCM; 30 g L−1) en diferentes dosis (25+15, 37.5+22.5 y 50+30 g FSN+TCM ha−1) a suelo desnudo. Cinco especies de malezas (Brassica napus; Chenopodium album; Matricaria recutita; Alopecurus myosuroides; Echinochloa crus-galli) fueron sembradas a 5, 10, 15, y 20 d después de la aplicación. La duración de la actividad del suelo fue evaluada determinando el porcentaje de control de malezas en las parcelas tratadas. La mayor duración se observó después de aplicar 50+30 g FSN+TCM ha−1, pero la influencia en el ambiente fue mucho más fuerte que el efecto de la dosis. La duración promedio de la actividad en el suelo fue 10 a 15 d en 2013 y más de 20 d en 2014. Las diferencias entre las especies de malezas en su respuesta a los tratamientos de herbicidas fue pequeña.
