Fenoxaprop for Annual Foxtail (Setaria sp.) Control in Seedling Perennial Forages
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2017
Abstract
Seedling timothy tolerated fenoxaprop at 0.09 kg ai ha-1 whereas seedling orchardgrass tolerated applications as high as 0.13 kg ai ha-1. Several fenoxaprop treatments increased perennial grass yields the year following establishment. Fenoxaprop appears to solve annual foxtail problems in new plantings of orchardgrass or timothy seeded alone. Over a 2-yr period, alfalfa yields in on alfalfa-grass mixture were maintained or increased from fenoxaprop applied the seedling year. In the mixtures, timothy yield declined in relation to fenoxaprop applied, but orchardgrass did not. Use of fenoxaprop on seedling alfalfa-timothy or alfalfa-orchardgrass mixtures is questionable.
