103 SUCCESSES THIN THE m-4 ORNAMENTAL WEED CONTROL PROGRAM IN 1995-1996 1 J. Ray Frank'' ABSTRACT During 995 and 1996 over 450 m-4 ornamental research projects were conducted by s ate and federal researchers to develop data for use on national label registrati ns. In 1995 his research included 209 total projects with 18 herbicides and no plant growth r gulators. In 1996 151 herbicide projects were conducted across the United States ith 19 herbicides including the following: Isoxaben Lactofen Metolachlor Napropamide Oryzalin Oxadiazon Oxyfluorfen Oxyfluorfen + Oryzalin Oxyfluorfen + Pendimethalin Prodiamine Sethoxydim Trifluralin m-4 res arch was conducted in 1996 on the following four plant growth regulators: C ormequat, Daminozide, Methyl Esters of Fatty Acids and Uniconazole. Previou research within the m-4 Program led to 377 new label additions in 1995 and over 800 in 1996. 1 New Jerse Agricultural Experiment Station Publication No. K-27200-01-97 supported y State, U.S. Hatch Act and other U.
