| There is little information about the precise dose of different herbicides for weeds in fallows. Herbicide efficacy varies for each weed species and plant size. The effect of glyphosate, 2,4-D, and metsulfuron-methyl + dicamba doses on biomass control of annual and perennial weed species at the vegetative and reproductive stage present in the autumn-winter-spring fallow in the soybean central region of Argentina was studied. Experiments were conducted in pots in 2003 and 2004. At the vegetative and reproductive stages, glyphosate, 2,4-D, metsulfuron-methyl + dicamba in three doses (2X, 1X, 1/2X) were applied; 1X being the recommended dose: 1440 g a.i./ha for glyphosate, 800 g a.i./ha for 2,4-D and 5.4 + 48 g a.i./ha for metsulfuron-methyl + dicamba.
