Aplicação, em pré-colheita, de dessecante em duas cultivares de soja (Glycine max (L. ) Merril) III - Efeitos sobre a composição química (proteína, óleo e cinzas) e resíduos nas sementes

This work showed that the application of paraquat to either determinate or indeterminate cultivars of soybean when the seeds have reached physiological maturity does not affect the chemical composition but it was verified that the levels of paraquat residue in the grains was too high for the material to be recommended for human or animal consumption.
