TY - JOUR AU - Fischer, Bill B. TI - Herbicides for weed control in sesame JF - California Agriculture JO - Calif Agr Y1 - 1971/04/01 VL - 25 IS - 4 SP - 14 EP - 15 PB - University of California Agriculture and Nature Resources SN - 0008-0845 UR - http://www.ucanr.edu/sites/calagjournal/archive/?article=ca.v025n04p14 AB - These studies demonstrated the effectiveness of several herbicides (preplant incorporated in furrow-irrigated fields) for the selective control of weeds in sesame. Additional trials are needed to determine the effects on yield and oil quality…as well as the early retardation in growth of sesame caused by herbicides as compared with that caused by weed competition. The use of selective herbicides offers effective, economical weed control.
