New Weed Chemicals
Promising in Tests
Weeds! Those pesky plants
that cut down crop yields in Ore
gon fields and gardens and cause
production costs to rise, had bet
ter start worrying. At least those
in corn, bean, onion and legume
fields.
Scientists at Oregon State col
lege have been testing two types
of selective weed killers that look
quite promising for control of
such annual grass and broadleaf
weeds as pigweed, annual blue
grass and purslane.
.William R. Furtick, in charge of
the experimental work, says that
when applied properly the chemi
cals shouldn't harm the crop.
Used as a spray, the chemicals
are applied directly to soils after
planting and prior to the time the
weeds come up. Rates vary from
3 to 12 pounds per acre.
The weed killers belong to two
different groups of chemicals,
chloro-acetamides and thio-car-bamates.
Their commercial value
will depend upon their cost per
acre, and whether or not they are
effective under a wide range of
conditions.
Furtick emphasizes that further
tests are necessary before the
chemicals can be released for gen
eral use.
