Weed control in melon with preemergence herbicides
Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the effectiveness and selectivity of herbicides applied at preemergence to the melon (Cucumis melo) crop. The experiments were carried out from 2017 to 2018, in a randomized complete block design, with four replicates, in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. The treatments consisted of the preemergence application of: 35 g ha-1 a.i. flumioxazin, 25 g ha-1 a.i. flumioxazin, 250 g ha-1 a.i. sulfentrazone, 480 g ha-1 a.i. metribuzin, 240 g ha-1 a.i. oxyfluorfen, 240 g ha-1 a.i. oxyfluorfen + 960 g ha-1 a.i. S-metolachlor, 360 g ha-1 a.i. clomazone, and 360 g ha-1 a.i. clomazone + 240 g ha-1 a.i. oxyfluorfen; in 2018, metribuzin did not show selectivity and was substituted by 480 g ha-1 a.i. ametryn and 1,600 g ha-1 a.i. diuron. Fruit yield and quality, as well as weed control and dry mass, were evaluated. The metribuzin, ametryn, and diuron herbicides caused melon plant death. The best efficiency in weed control was obtained with the mixture clomazone + oxyfluorfen, followed by oxyfluorfen, oxyfluorfen + S-metolachlor, and clomazone. The treatments with oxyfluorfen, oxyfluorfen + S-metolachlor, and clomazone + oxyfluorfen were not considered selective. Clomazone was the only selective herbicide in the two years of evaluation and can be an alternative for weed control in melon crops.
