Chemical weed control with effective and highly active herbicides has been very useful and convenient means. It has contributed to stable crop production and is labor saving. Recent herbicides have had characteristics such as high effectiveness without causing environmental pollution or harmful effects, and appropriate herbicides having high activity, low toxicity, high selectivity and being non-persistent have been developed. Cyclosulfamuron was applied for weed control in paddy rice. The experiments were conducted by Taichung, Kaohsiung and Taoyuan District Agricultural Research and Extension Stations to evaluate cyclosulfamuron for rice crop tolerance and efficacy of weed control. Cyperus difformis, Monochoria vaginalis, Lindernia cordiforia, and Sphenoclea zeylanica. were controlled with high efficiency by applications of cyclosulfamuron with 0.45 and 0.60 kg/ha, except Echinochloa crus-galli. Cyclosulfamuron at 0.45 and 0.60 kg/ha was safe on tested rice cultivars. They can be applied at 6-15 days (1(superscript st) crop) or 3-10 days (2(superscript nd) crop) after rice transplanting and have to date proven very effective in the control of a wide range of annual and perennial broad leaf weeds, as well as sedges.
