Abstract (es)

In order to determine the best time to use and the adequate dose of four herbicides to control weeds in dryland chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) fields, we performed the present experiment in 4 x 5 m plots. Fourteen treatments were carried out that from 1 to 9 included trifluralin. Treatments 1, 2, and 3 were with increasing doses of trifluralin (480, 720, and 960 g ai ha^-1) applied 30 days before planting. Treatments 4, 5, and 6 included increasing doses of trifluralin (480, 720, and 960 g ai ha^-1) applied 15 days before planting. Treatments 7, 8 and 9 consisted of increasing doses of trifluralin (480, 720, and 960 g ai ha^-1) applied at the time of planting. Treatments 10, 11, and 12 included pyroxasulfone (85 g ai ha^-1), flumioxazin (51 g ai ha^-1) and imazethapyr (100 g ai ha^-1), respectively. These last three treatments were carried out at the time of planting; treatments 13 and 14 were: weed-infested (without weed control) and weed-free (manual weeding during the entire season). Flumioxazin 66% and pyroxasulfone 57% (mean of two samples) reduced weed dry weight compared to uncontrolled treatment. The results showed that the treatments were significantly different for 100-seed weight, biological yield, and seed yield of chickpea. Weed-infested and weed-free plants had the lowest and highest grain yield, respectively. Herbicide treatments of flumioxazin, trifluralin 960 g ai ha^-1, and pyroxasulfone at planting produced 55%, 44%, and 40% higher grain yield than the weed-infested plots. Also, none of the herbicide treatments reduced chickpea yield and biomass. The herbicide residues had no adverse effect on wheat growth in the next crop season.

Con el fin de identificar el mejor momento de uso y la dosis adecuada de cuatro herbicidas para el control de malezas en campos áridos de garbanzo (Cicer aretinum L.), el presente experimento se realizó en parcelas de 4 x 5 m. Se realizaron 14 tratamientos donde, del 1 al 9 incluyeron trifluralina; los tratamientos 1, 2 y 3 fueron con dosis crecientes de trifluralina (480, 720, and 960 g ia ha^-1) aplicada 30 días antes de la siembra; los tratamientos 4, 5 y 6 incluyeron dosis crecientes de trifluralina (480, 720, y 960 g ia ha^-1) 15 d antes de la siembra. Los tratamientos 7, 8 y 9 consistieron en dosis crecientes de trifluralina (480, 720, y 960 g ia ha^-1) al momento de la siembra. Los tratamientos 10, 11 y 12, incluyeron piroxasulfona (85 g ia ha^-1), flumioxazina (51 g ia ha^-1) e imazetapir (100 g ai ha^-1) respectivamente. Estos tres últimos tratamientos se realizaron al momento de la siembra; los tratamientos 13 y 14 fueron: infestado de maleza (sin control de maleza) y libre de maleza (desmalezado manual durante toda la temporada). La flumioxazina al 66% y la piroxasulfona al 57% (media de dos muestras) redujeron el peso seco de las malezas en comparación con la parcela infestada de malezas. Los resultados mostraron que los tratamientos fueron significativamente diferentes para el peso de 100 semillas, el rendimiento biológico y el rendimiento de semillas de garbanzo. Las plantas infestadas de malezas y libres de malezas tuvieron el rendimiento de grano más bajo y alto respectivamente. Los tratamientos con herbicidas flumioxazina, trifluralina 960 g ia ha^-1, y piroxasulfona en la siembra, mostraron un rendimiento de grano 55%, 44% y 40% mayor, respectivamente, que las parcelas infestadas de malezas. Además, ninguno de los tratamientos con herbicida redujo el rendimiento y la biomasa del garbanzo. Los residuos del herbicida no tuvieron efecto adverso sobre el crecimiento del trigo en la siguiente temporada de cultivo.
