Weeds are a serious constraint to maize production in the tropics. A field experiment was conducted in Cameroon, at the University of Buea Research farm in 2009 and 2010 to evaluate the efficacy of formulations of nicosulfuron (Nicomaïs 40SC), glyphosate (Roundup 360) and paraquat (Gramoxone 200g...
