Research Project: Determine the Dose-Response of Weeds to Propargyl Bromide

Location: Crop Improvement and Protection Research

Project Number: 5305-22000-009-08
Project Type: Specific C/A

Start Date: Sep 26, 2000
End Date: Sep 26, 2005

Objective:
Evaluate the relationship between concentration of propargyl bromide applied as a soil fumigant on weed seed viability.

Approach:
Various concentrations of the fumigant propargyl bromide will be used to treat soil infested with the seeds of six different common weeds. Survival of weed seeds will then be evaluated. The fumigant will be evaluated at a rate of 25, 50, 75, 150, & 300 lbs AI/acre. Formerly 5305-22000-008-10S (2/04).
