The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of alternative herbicides to ACCase inhibitors to control Digitaria insularis (sourgrass) during pre-sowing soybean desiccation. Two field experiments were conducted with two temporal replicates under different climatic conditions, with the following treatments: imazethapyr + glyphosate, clethodim + fluroxypyr, chlorimuron + glyphosate, imazapic + imazapyr, mesotrione + atrazine + glyphosate, tembotrione + atrazine + glyphosate, nicosulfuron + atrazine and imazamox + glyphosate, all of which were composed of a sequential application of glufosinate ammonium. The water stress conditions in experiment 1 compromised the efficacy of acetolactate synthase enzyme (ALS) inhibitor herbicides in the control of sourgrass. Even under water restriction conditions, the treatments containing mesotrione + atrazine + glyphosate and tembotrione + atrazine + glyphosate provided control greater than 80%. In experiment 2, the combination of ALS inhibitors with glyphosate proved to be a great alternative for the management of sourgrass control. All treatments showed no significant phytotoxicity in soybean for either experiment.
