Controlling Primrose With Low Rates of 2,4-D Alone and in Tank Mixtures A. S. Culpepper and A. C. York University of Georgia N. C. State University
Conservation Tillage Acreage 1998 2003 GA 12% 40% NC 30% 55%
Cutleaf Eveningprimrose and Wild Radish are the Most Common Weeds For Cotton Burndown
0.75 lb ae NTC 0.5 lb ai glyphosate paraquat 30 DAT- primrose
Literature Review – Primrose Control Reynolds, Crawford, Jordan. JCS, 2000. 2,4-D (0.75 lb/A) was the most effective tank mix partner with glyphosate or paraquat Poston, Blaine, Griffin. SWSS, 2003. Control averaged 95% when 2,4-D (0.75 lb/A) was added to glyphosate Culpepper and York. SWSS, 2002. Most effective tank mix partner with glyphosate or paraquat was 2,4-D (0.5 lb/A)
2,4-D Plant Back Intervals Barrage HF and Salvo – 30 day prior to plant Many other 2,4-D’s – 3 months or until disappeared
Objectives How much 2,4-D alone is needed to control primrose? How much 2,4-D do we need to add with a non-selective herbicide option to control primrose?

Primrose Response to 2,4-D Mixtures. 6 WAT. Rocky Mount, NC. 2003. 16 oz WeatherMax + 8 oz 2,4-D
Primrose Response to 2,4-D Mixtures. 6 WAT. Rocky Mount, NC. 2003. WeatherMax + Valor + 4 oz 2,4-D
Conclusions – 2,4-D Alone At 30 DAT, only 12 and 16 oz/A of 2,4-D provided greater than 90% primrose control. By 45 DAT, all rates of 2,4-D provided greater than 90% primrose control. By 56 DAT, primrose control was nearly complete regardless of rate. Primrose size did not appear to matter What rate?? How long can you wait!!!
Conclusions – 2,4-D Mixtures At 15 DAT: Roundup (32%), Roundup + Valor (87%), Gramoxone + Caparol (90%) At 15 DAT: mixing 4 oz/A 2,4-D with Roundup improved control 25%. At 45 DAT: Roundup (71%), Roundup + Valor (81%), Gramoxone + Caparol (81%). At 45 DAT: mixing 4 oz/A of 2,4-D improved control of non-selective treatments by 18 to 28%.
Future Research Results must be confirmed!! Plant back interval to cotton??
