Abstract/Contents: | "A two year investigation was initiated in 1987 to determine the effects of several herbicides on woody and herbaceous vegetation. These results have implications for foresters, as site prep tools, and to ROW maintenance personnel. The chemicals were applied in an arial application simulation system, volume equivalent to 15 GPA. The chemicals investigated include: imazapyr (0.75 and 1.5 lb/A), AC263222 (2.0 and 4.0 lb/A), glyphosate (1.0 and 2.0 lb/A), and SC-0224 (1.0 and 2.0 lb/A). When evaluated in the spring of 1988, treatments of imazapyr and AC 263222 were superior, regardless of the rate applied. These treatments had suppression values that ranged from 78.75 to 93.75%. The grand mean for this evaluation date was 47.39. Treatments were evaluated again in early Aug. of 1988. The overall mean of this evaluation was 20.54%. Treatments of AC263222 at 2.0 and 4.0 lb/A were the only treatments to yield results above 20.00% (70.00 and 88.75% respectively). All other treatments had suppression values of less than 15%. The woody vegetation was controlled equally as well by all treatments. Winged elm (Ulmus alata L.) proved to be the species most difficult to control." |
