Corn, as the main cultivated plant in the Transylvanian agriculture exploitations, remains a preoccupation of scientists to permanently improve the culture technologies or adapt the technology to the modifications occurred in the corn crop habitat, in the specific machinery system or in the economic interests of this crop. The paper presents the results of some stationary experiments developed in a 4 years period: 2004-2007, Noşlac Commune, Alba County which were tested several post-emergence chemical weed control strategies in corn crop. By the research carried out we envisage to clarify certain aspects concerning the specificity of corn crop weeding in Alba County (Commune of Noşlac), the efficacy of two post-emergence weed control strategies for corn crop, and the selectivity of chemical recipes for this crop.
