Method of controlling weeds

Abstract

The present invention can provide a method having a high effect on the control of weeds. The method includes a step of applying Trifludimoxazin or ethyl [3-[2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-3-yl)phenoxy]-2-pyridyloxy]acetate using a drift-reducing nozzle.

1 . A method of controlling weeds, the method comprising:
 applying trifludimoxazin or ethyl [3-[2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-3-yl)phenoxy]-2-pyridyloxy]acetate by using a drift-reducing nozzle.   
     
     
         2 . The method of controlling weeds according to  claim 1 , wherein trifludimoxazin or ethyl [3-[2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-3-yl)phenoxy]-2-pyridyloxy]acetate is used in combination with a herbicide different from trifludimoxazin or ethyl[3-[2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-3-yl)phenoxy]-2-pyridyloxy]acetate. 
     
     
         3 . The method of controlling weeds according to  claim 1 , wherein trifludimoxazin or ethyl [3-[2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-3-yl)phenoxy]-2-pyridyloxy]acetate is applied to a cultivation area for a crop. 
     
     
         4 . The method of controlling weeds according to  claim 3 , wherein the crop is a crop selected from the group consisting of a soybean, corn, cotton, rape seed, rice, wheat, barley, sugarcane, sugar beet, sorghum, and sunflower. 
     
     
         5 . The method of controlling weeds according to  claim 3 , wherein the crop is a crop to which tolerance to trifludimoxazin or ethyl [3-[2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-3-yl)phenoxy]-2-pyridyloxy]acetate is imparted. 
     
     
         6 . The method of controlling weeds according to  claim 2 , wherein trifludimoxazin or ethyl [3-[2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-3-yl)phenoxy]-2-pyridyloxy]acetate is applied to a cultivation area for a crop. 
     
     
         7 . The method of controlling weeds according to  claim 6 , wherein the crop is a crop selected from the group consisting of a soybean, corn, cotton, rape seed, rice, wheat, barley, sugarcane, sugar beet, sorghum, and sunflower. 
     
     
         8 . The method of controlling weeds according to  claim 7 , wherein the crop is a crop to which tolerance to trifludimoxazin or ethyl [3-[2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-3-yl)phenoxy]-2-pyridyloxy]acetate is imparted. 
     
     
         9 . The method of controlling weeds according to  claim 4 , wherein the crop is a crop to which tolerance to trifludimoxazin or ethyl [3-[2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-(1-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-3-yl)phenoxy]-2-pyridyloxy]acetate is imparted.
