Abstract
This research experiment was structured to compare different weed control methods and crop responses to current commercially available herbicides. Using a randomized complete block design with four replications, the dark tobacco was set in four rows that were 40 feet long. The eight experimental treatments were applied at a rate of 15 gal/acre. One control plot was used. All treatments were pre-plant incorporated. The dark tobacco variety, NL Madole, was planted in mid March. Comparisons will be made between the eight experimental treatments for the current season’s data and the previous year’s data.
