Abstract
The persistence of napropamide [2-(α-naphthoxy)-N,N-diethylpropionamide] applied at 2.24- and 4.48-kg/ha was studied for 2 yr at two locations in the field. Wheat (Triticum aestivumL. ‘Arthur 71′) was severely injured when sown in the fall following a spring application of napropamide. A wheat root bioassay also showed that napropamide was persistent for more than 180 days. The yield of sweet corn (Zea maysL. var.rugosaBonaf. ‘Gold Cup’) was not significantly reduced when grown 1 yr after the initial application of napropamide.Keywords
