Zollinger, Richard K., Devin A. Wirth, Jason W. Adams. An experiment was conducted near Hillsboro, ND to evaluate broad leaf weed control. POST treatments were applied on July 11, 2014 at 11:30 am with 84 Fair, 71 F soil at a four inch depth, 50% RH, 0% cloud 2 cover, 8-10 mph NW wind, and adequate soil moisture. Weeds species present at the time of the POST treatments were: 4-8" (10-18/ft2) flax, 2-4" (10-12/ft ) 2 2 redroot pigweed, 0-2" (10-12/ft ) common purslane, and 8-10" (8-10/ft ) tame buckwheat. Soil characteristics were: 51% sand, 36% silt, 13% clay, loam, 4.1% OM, and 7.7 pH. Treatments were applied to the center 6.7 feet of the 9 by 40 foot plots with a backpack-type plot sprayer delivering 17 gpa at 40 psi through TI11002 nozzles for the POST applications. The experiment had a randomized complete block design with three replicates per treatment. The site had a heavy infestation of red root pigweed and common purslane. MSO adjuvants enhance most all herbicides except glyphosate and glufosinate. MSO adjuvants significantly enhance contact herbicides, including Groups 6 (bentazon) and 14 (Blazer, Cobra, Sharpen, Flexstar/Reflex, others). It was thought that MSO would enhance Group 22 herbicides (paraquat and diquat). This study was designed to observe the affect of NIS (R-11), PO (WCS Crop Oil), MSO (Upland MSO), and HSMOC (Destiny HC) adjuvants on paraquat applied at a labeled rate. NIS enhanced paraquat more than other adjuvants used which is contrary to the idea that MSO adjuvants would enhance paraquat activity the most. Increasing NIS from 0.25 to 1% v/v did not result in greater control (flax was slightly significant). Increasing PO, MSO, and HSMOC rates from 1 pt to 2 pt/A were neutral but mostly antagonistic. NIS was positive to paraquat. PO generally has 17% surfactant/emulsifier, MSO generally has 10% surfactant/emulsifier, and HSMOC may contain 25 to 50% surfactant/emulsifier. It was thought that HSMOC adjuvants may overcome the antagonism from the oil by the greater concentration of surfactant (25 to 50%) but data from this study clear antagonism especially as HSMOC rate increated. Summary: Use NIS with paraquat. Table. Weed control with paraquat and adjuvants. (Zollinger, Wirth, Adams).

Howatt, Roach, and Harrington. 'Rahab 94' flax, buckwheat, amaranth, and quinoa was seeded near Fargo June 4. Treatments were applied to flowering buckwheat, 6 inch flax, pigweed and lambsquarters 4 to 6 true leaf, 2 to 4 inch Venice mallow, and 3 to 5 leaf yellow foxtail on July 7 with 80°F, 44% relative humidity, 100% cloud cover, 5 to 10 mph velocity wind at 330°, and dry soil at 76°F. Treatments were applied with a backpack sprayer delivering 8.5 gpa at 40 psi through 11001 TT nozzles to a 7 foot wide area the length of 10 by 30 feet. The experiment was a randomized complete block design with four replicates.

Nonionic surfactant or high surfactant methylated oil concentrate, which includes relatively high amount of NIS, provided the greatest control of several species. Control of yellow foxtail, tame buckwheat, and wild mustard were generally similar across adjuvant type. Adjuvants that included an oil component promoted improved control of wild buckwheat with paraquat, but best control was achieved with an adjuvant containing oil and NIS. 3 Adjuvants for Paraquat. Howatt, Roach, and Harrington. 'Rahab 94' flax, buckwheat, amaranth, and quinoa was seeded near Fargo June 4. Treatments were applied to 8 to 14 inch green foxtail, Venice mallow, wild mustard, and wild buckwheat on August 6 with 68°F, 79% relative humidity, 100% cloud cover and hazy, 1.5 mph wind at 90°, and damp soil at 68°F. Treatments were applied with a backpack sprayer delivering 8.5 gpa at 38 psi through 11002 TT nozzles to a 7 foot wide area the length of 10 by 30 feet.

Howatt, Roach, and Harrington. 'Rahab 94' flax and buckwheat were seeded near Fargo on June 4. Treatments were applied to flowering mustard and 4 to 6 leaf Venice mallow on July 9 with 74°F, 39% relative humidity, 0% cloud- cover, 2 to 6 mph wind at 350°, and dry soil at 69°F. Treatments were applied with a sprayer mounted on a 4 wheel all-terrain vehicle delivering 17 gpa at 50 psi through various nozzles to a 7 ft wide area the length of 10 by 30 foot plots. The experiment was a randomized complete block design with four replicates.
