O uso do C.M.U. como ervicida total
C.M.U. as a general herbicide, for soil sterilization
R. Forster
SUMMARY
C.M.U. has been tested in clay soil, where a few annual and perennial weeds were present. Application was made as a water spray, using from 1 to 9 g per square meter giving as result a gradually increased effect. On the highest level the soil remained sterilized against weed growth for a period of two years. After this period the first Bermuda grass started to grow on the soil. Counts of nut grass proceeded twenty six months after C. M. U. has been applied showed reduction of nut grass to two plants per square meter, compared to the check where still 196 plants of nut grass could be found.
C.M.U. is therefore recommended for sterilization of soil for the purpose of eliminating plant growth.
