Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most versatile multi-purpose crop used as feed and food crop beside other no-food uses. During 2023 year a field experiment in a randomized complete block design with three replications and fourteen treatments was carried out in the Agricultural and Research Station Caracal with the aim of evaluation of weed control in maize, using new generation herbicides. The treatments were composed of isolated and associated herbicides and all were considered selective in maize via pre-emergence (PRE) and post-emergence (POST) applications. The efficacy evaluation was done at 7, 14, 21 and 28 days since each treatment targeting CHEAL, HIBTR, DATST, POLSS, CONAR, ECHCG, SETVI, SORHA, CYNDA, DIGSA, MATSS, AMBEL, GALPA, POROL, SOLNI. Results revealed that, among the herbicidal treatments, the best efficacy was recorded by SAE 053 H/01 + Baracuda doze p.c. 1.2 + 0.5; SAE 053 H/01 + Nico 40 OD doze p.c. 1.2 + 0.5; SAE 053 H/01 + Baracuda +Nico 40 OD doze p.c. 1.2 + 0.5 + 0.5.
