Abstract
A weed control trial was carried out in a two-year-old immature oil palm planting to evaluate the efficacy of metsulfaron-methyl against Dianella ensifolia, an evergreen perennial shrub. Results from 13 weeks' evaluation showed that metsulfuron-methyl at 90 g a.i. per hectare alone was effective against the weed with 100 per cent control and there was no regrowth when the trial was terminated at the thirteenth week after treatment. Keywords: Dianella ensifolia, metsulfaron-methyl, weed management.
