Abstract
The presence of weeds in peanut crops has been demonstrated to result in a reduction in yields. Weeds can cause competition for growing space, water, sunlight, and nutrients and become hosts for pests and diseases in peanut plants. The purpose of this study is to determine the effective dose to control weeds in peanut plantations and to determine the effect of applying phenoxaprop-p-ethyl herbicide 130 g/l on peanut growth and yield. From December 2023 to April 2024, experiments ranging from tillage to observation of peanut yield were conducted at Ciparanje Experimental Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, Padjadjaran University. This experiment employed a Randomized Group Design with six treatments and four replications and obtained 24 experimental plots. The treatments of phenoxaprop-p-ethyl herbicide 130 g/l included doses of 1.50 l/ha; 2.00 l/ha; 2.50 l/ha; 3.00 l/ha; manual weeding 1 time; and control. The results showed that fenoxaprop-p-ethyl herbicide 130 g/l can suppress the growth of E. indica, C. dactylon, P. conjugatum, S. plicata, D. ciliaris, C. kyllingia, some broadleaf weeds and total weeds at doses of 1.50 - 3.00 l/ha. Phenoxaprop-p-ethyl herbicide 130 g/l did not cause poisoning symptoms or affect the growth and yield of peanuts.
